In a series of incidents related to the Lok Sabha elections, Bengaluru Police have taken action against several BJP leaders for their conduct on social media and during polling. BJP President JP Nadda and IT cell head Amit Malviya were summoned due to a post allegedly intimidating SC and ST community members. Additionally, the Karnataka BJP's social media convenor was arrested for an objectionable post that accused the Congress of appeasing Muslims. In Gujarat, BJP leader Vijay Bhabhor was arrested for livestreaming a video from a polling booth and using abusive language on May 7. The Election Commission of India has ordered re-polling on May 11 at the Dahod Lok Sabha seat where the incident occurred.
