In Supreme Court, EC may share same draft roll it gave to political parties
New Delhi: The Election Commission of India (ECI) is likely to inform the Supreme Court that it had shared the draft electoral rolls of Bihar with various political parties on August 1 and had also circulated lists detailing reasons for the deletion of nearly 6.5 million electors, people familiar with the matter told HT on Wednesday. The Election Commission of India headquarters in New Delhi(File Photo) The top court, which is hearing a bunch of petitions challenging the ECI's ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in poll-bound Bihar, on Wednesday directed the poll body to file to file a reply by August 9 in response to allegations that over 6.5 million names were deleted from the draft rolls. An official aware of the matter, requesting anonymity, said: 'The roll shared with parties on August 1 has detailed classifications of the 65 lakh (6.5 million) deletions. While there is no separate category for those who didn't fill enumeration forms, they have been grouped under 'migrated'. Suspected foreign nationals are also under review and listed under the same head, but they are being separately verified by electoral registration officers (EROs).' The top court's order came on a plea filed by the Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR), a non-profit working on electoral and political reforms, alleging that ECI removed a column titled 'Uncollectable Reason' from the version of the draft roll published on August 1. The petition also sought disclosure of booth-wise deletions and their reasons. The top court asked ECI to inform it when were the draft rolls shared to the parties, which parties received these rolls, as well as to submit the list of deleted names. The official cited above said the draft rolls were handed over to all political parties by district collectors at 11 am on August 1, and published on the ECI's website at 3 pm the same day. Booth-level data, the official added, was shared with political party representatives. In a press note on July 25, the commission had said that 2.2 million electors were found deceased, 700,000 were registered in more than one place, and 3.5 million had either migrated permanently or were untraceable. After top court's direction on Wednesday, ECI issued a press note saying: '…lists of electors found dead, permanently shifted, having duplicate entries, or uncontactable after at least three visits by Booth Level Officers (BLOs) had been shared with all political parties and their BLAs on or before July 20.' It further shared a series of posts with various BLAs saying they have received the draft electoral roll and separately a list of the 6.5 million individuals removed from the roll. ECI also said that between August 1 and August 6 (9 AM), no political party had filed claims or objections related to the draft roll. However, 3,659 individual objections and claims have been submitted directly by electors. The Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) rejected EC's 'no objections' received remarks, saying EC is trying to create an impression that everything is fine with the Bihar SIR and there are no complaints coming in. 'Nothing could be farther from the truth', the opposition party said in a post on X, listing several concerns, including the claim that its leaders had submitted complaints which were not being counted because they were not routed through BLAs. It also questioned the assumption that all 15,000 Form 6 applications received were from first-time voters and not from electors who had been deleted from the rolls. 'We have been repeatedly asking the EC to provide us with booth level lists of deletion specifying the ground thereof, but to no avail,' the Left party added.

Rahul Gandhi, Mallikarjun Kharge to address 'Vote adhikar rally' in Bengaluru on August 8
AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi will address the party's "Vote adhikar rally" in protest against the alleged votes theft at Bengaluru's Freedom Park on August 8, the party's general secretary in-charge of Karnataka Randeep Singh Surjewala said on Wednesday. Alleging that the "Election Commission of India has become Election Capture of India", he asserted that the Congress party won't permit it and democracy to be obliterated. Amid the raging row over the revision of electoral rolls in Bihar, Rahul Gandhi, who is the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha, on July 23 had alleged that elections are being "stolen" in India and claimed that his party has figured out the modus operandi of the "votes theft" by studying a parliamentary constituency in Karnataka. The Congress on Wednesday held a preparatory meeting for the protest rally that was attended by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, state Congress President and Deputy CM D K Shivakumar, Surjewala, host of party leaders, ministers among other senior office bearers and functionaries. "Vote adhikar rally will be addressed by Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge at the historical Freedom Park on August 8, at 11 am," Surjewala said. Speaking to reporters here after the meeting of party leaders, he said the rally is a clarion call for cleansing of voter lists and for deleting fraudulent voters. "It is a nationwide Gandhi will be giving you (media), as also people of Karnataka and India though you, a presentation on how elections are being stolen, democracy is being decimated, the Constitution is obliterated. Election Commission of India has become Election Capture of India -- ECI. We the Congress people will not permit Election Capture of India, we will not permit democracy to be obliterated," he added. Asked whether Rahul Gandhi will be releasing any documents on the alleged vote theft, Surjewala said, "You will see, just wait." After the protest rally, Congress leaders are scheduled to submit a memorandum to Election Commission officials here. The Congress had initially planned this protest on August 5, but it was postponed following the death of Jharkhand Mukti Morcha leader Shibu Soren. Noting that Freedom Park is a historical place and at such a place this protest is being held, abiding by court orders (against holding large scale protest in the city), Shivakumar said state party legislators, defeated (MLA) candidates and ministers will participate in this. "From every assembly constituency, other than Bengaluru surrounding, a minimum of at least 50 party leaders should participate. Siddaramaiah, myself, Surjewala and other senior leaders have held meetings," he said. Noting that Bengaluru and Karnataka have sent a message to the whole country on various occasions, the KPCC chief said INDIA bloc was also born here ahead of 2024 Lok Sabha polls. "It (rally) is to inform and enlighten the people about the discrepancies that have happened in elections and to ensure that they are aware of protecting their voting rights," he said. Responding to a question, Shivakumar said Siddaramaiah is going to Delhi on Thursday to attend a dinner meeting of INDIA bloc leaders. "As I have to make preparations for the August 8 protest, I will be here," he added. Disclaimer: This story has been published from a wire agency feed without modifications to the text.
