Voter list revisions spark accountability push across India
Original: voter list
Election officials in India are facing scrutiny over voter list revisions. Karnataka's final rolls dropped by nearly one crore voters after a special revision, with reports that almost half of deleted voters in Bengaluru were removed. In Uttar Pradesh, the Chief Electoral Officer ordered a probe into 10,000 list changes, calling it a crime, and ordered daily reviews with officials held accountable. Delhi is holding special camps for people left out of draft rolls after their homes were demolished.
Why now: Special intensive revision of electoral rolls is deleting large numbers of voters, raising concerns about disenfranchisement and official accountability.
