Ghaziabad: An election survey office in Indirapuram locality here was raided and sealed after reports alleging misuse of voter information surfaced, police said Friday.

The survey company allegedly had a list of voters which might have been used by electoral candidates for their vested interests, SSP Raghubir Lal said.

Under the direction of District Magistrate Aparna, police chief, and Additional District Magistrate R K Sharma, a raid was conducted on the election survey office last night, the SSP said.

Ambrish Tyagi, director of the survey company, is the son of JD-U leader K C Tyagi, Lal said.

The office has been seized, he said. Tyagi strongly criticised the act and denied any wrongdoing.
