Disclaimer. Figures are compiled from candidates’ own self-sworn affidavits to the Election Commission of India and other public records, with a source link on every fact. Criminal cases are declared and mostly pending and unproven — a listed case is an allegation, never a finding of guilt, and the severity tier shown is derived, not adjudicated. Wealth is as self-declared. Data may contain transcription or matching errors; spotted one? Use “Report a discrepancy” to flag it.
