Ink Controversy During BMC Polls: NDTV Fact-Checks Claims

A major controversy has erupted during BMC poll voting in Mumbai over claims that the ink applied on voters' fingers can be easily removed. The Election Commission has clarified that for municipal elections, a marker-not permanent indelible ink-is used. NDTV conducted a fact check and spoke to voters on the ground to verify the claims, even as questions are being raised over voting safeguards and transparency.
