Who filed 77% of Form 7s in Delhi’s Mustafabad? BJP BLAs named as ‘objectors’ deny them

NEW DELHI Individuals named as Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-appointed Booth Level Agents (BLAs), and listed as ‘objectors’ in at least 77% of the total 1,021 deletion applications filed so far in Delhi’s Mustafabad constituency, have largely denied any association with filing Form 7s as part of the continuing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in the city.

The Hindu contacted all 20 BLAs registered with the BJP, according to the Election Commission of India’s (ECI) records, who are named as filing the 787 Form 7s, which cite reasons such as “absent/permanently shifted”, “already enrolled” and “death” to seek the deletion of electors’ names.

All the applications are against Muslim electors. In all, 16 of the 20 denied having filed or signed any forms since the claims and objections phase began on August 31, 2026. Almost all of them said they had no knowledge of forms being filled out in their names.

The 787 applications account for 94% of the 837 deletion applications filed by third parties, according to the publicly available list of Form 7s on the Delhi Chief Electoral Officer’s (CEO) website. Form 7 is used to seek the deletion of existing names from the electoral roll, or to object to the inclusion of names.
