"Today is the last day to file objections regarding the removal of names from the electoral roll. Reports are coming in from several places across the state that unknown individuals have submitted a large number of Form 7 to remove the names of Congress-supporting voters," Gehlot said on X in Hindi.

"I appeal to all Congress workers and booth-level presidents to keep a close watch on this and ensure that no legitimate vote is removed from the list," he wrote in his post.

Gehlot also urged the administrative officials to act in accordance with the Constitution and warned that officials involved in any illegal actions would eventually have to face the law.

He said that the desperation shows that the BJP is going to face decline.
