Congress leaders staged a protest in front of the taluk office in Koppa, Chikkamagaluru district, on Saturday, alleging that BJP leaders of the taluk had filed Form-7 applications in bulk seeking the deletion of 243 names from the electoral roll. They urged the tahsildar to book a case against taluk BJP president H.K. Dinesh and others.

Sudhir Kumar Murolli, the Congress leader who led the protest, told The Hindu that Mr. Dinesh and other BJP leaders had sought the deletion of 243 people on the grounds that they had shifted out of the taluk. “All of them are residents of the taluk. However, the BJP targeted them because they belong to minority communities. They wanted their names deleted from the electoral roll,” he alleged.
