"Everyone knows about this except the Election Commission. Despite our repeated appeals, this manipulation of Form-7 is not stopping in the SIR (Special Intensive Revision). Misuse of Form-7 is a very serious crime," he claimed.

Our PDA Praharis and vigilant voters are already trying to expose this fraud, and the Election Commission should also step forward to maintain its credibility," the SP chief wrote.
