Acharya Pawan Tripathi, a BJP leader, turned over documentation of a fraudulent PAN card for the Malvani region in the Malad West Assembly constituency, a Mumbai suburb. He stated that in several Muslim-dominated communities, there were reports of more PAN cards being registered in the name of a population that probably doesn't exist.
As per the reports, in the Palahi village of Rae Bareli, there is only one Muslim family out of 4500 total residents, however birth certificates for 819 Muslims have been allegedly produced by the accused.
