‘It doesn’t matter if they can’t agree, they have faith in my loyalty. Complaining may be their compulsion but it is our habit to listen, tolerate and resolve. ‘There is no grudge as the era of allegations and accusations continues, there is no complaint if the balloons of lies rise to the heights. They provide proof in every result but without proof they create a new world of doubt and even Hakim Luqman does not have the solution for doubt. CEC Rajeev Kumar rejected the allegations of Congress and Aam Aadmi Party about tampering with the voter list as completely baseless. He said that whatever procedure is done to remove someone’s name from the voter list is followed completely. Only after thorough verification is someone’s name removed from the voter list.
