: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu Tuesday alleged that names of eight lakh TDP voters have been deleted from the electoral rolls even as the ruling party and the main opposition YSR Congress engaged in a virtual war of words over the contentious issue.
State Chief Electoral Officer Gopala Krishna Dwivedi, however, maintained that they had permitted the authorities concerned to delete only 40,000 voters in 74 assembly constituencies and only 10,000 have been deleted so far.
The Chief Minister said in a tweet: "A person from Bihar is acting as consultant for the YSRCP. Eight lakh TDP votes have been removed. They used Form-7 for the purpose. Looks like they may even remove my vote tomorrow."
