During the meeting, Kejriwal flagged concerns about voter lists in Delhi, where assembly elections are due early next year. The INDIA bloc has claimed it lost the elections in Maharashtra due to alleged manipulation of EVMs in favour of the BJP-led Mahayuti coalition.

In the last month's elections, the BJP-led Mahayuti coalition won 235 seats in the 288-member House, while the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance bagged 46.
