New Delhi [India], February 4 (ANI): Congress candidate from Patparganj, Anil Chaudhary, on Monday alleged that liquor and meat were being distributed in the constituency to influence voters ahead of the Delhi Assembly elections.
Chaudhary claimed that BJP candidate Ravindra Negi was involved in the distribution, prompting the East Delhi Police to launch a probe.
In a video posted by Chaudhary on X, he could be seen showing a plastic bag with meat, accusing the BJP of resorting to unfair tactics.
“Today, meat and liquor are being used to buy votes from the poor. Like AAP, the BJP is also buying votes. Is this election fair?” he questioned.
