Draft voter lists show millions of names removed across India
The Special Summary Revision (SSR) process has led to the removal of over 2.2 million names from draft electoral rolls across four Indian states. While some officials express confidence in the inclusivity and accuracy of the final lists, reports indicate delays and voter frustration in certain areas due to issues like Aadhaar-voter ID mismatches and slow form distribution. The final electoral rolls are scheduled for publication on September 6.
