Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) [India], April 16 (ANI): The Bharatiya Janata Party Uttar Pradesh Minority Morcha has said that it will depute women from the Muslim community as agents in the minority dominant polling booths to combat bogus voting in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

"Our Muslim workers will be deputed as the party's polling agents in their own local respective booths," Ali said adding that a committee member from the same locality will also be appointed at every booth.
The committee member will help security personnel and authorities to check any suspicious voters and identify bogus voters wearing veils and inform the relevant authorities.
