Election Commission’s clarification on Bihar electoral rolls revision confusing, misleading: CPI(ML) Liberation

CPI (ML) Liberation leader Dipankar Bhattacharya said on Tuesday, July 1, 2025 that the election commission of the Election Commission in Bihar has contributed to the confusion and misinformation surrounding the exercise.

In a statement published here, the Secretary General of the Indian Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) Independence, the questionnaire panel should call the special motive and call “arbitrary and completely badly planned”, he said.

“If ECI tries to provide more explanation about the special intensive revision of the election rolls in Bihar, it would be so confusing and misleading.” He said.

He claimed that the Indian Election Commission (ECI) was reviewed every year, trying to “insignify” the revision exercise.

“It was 22 years ago when a special intensive revision was held. Certainly routine is not one -year exercise.”

Authorized, only citizens have the right to vote, but before the voters never wanted to prove their citizenship in India, he said.

“Otherwise, it was in the state to prove. He said.

He said that the registration of each birth is the responsibility of the state and that there is no birth due to informal.

“Instead of asking people to dig past records, allow the state to provide universal recording of births and deaths to ensure that the records are automatically updated.” He said.

The CPI (ML) leader questioned why there were no consultations with political parties before deciding to realize the exercise.

“ECI, Sir, before starting before starting with any political party does not offer a statement that he did not consult before? Why was he suddenly announced?” When the demonetization was announced, the government said he wanted to capture the money holders unaware. Why did ECI want to capture voters unprepared? “He asked.

Question about process and results

Mr. Bhattacharya said that voters who can watch their heritage until the 2003 election roll will not have to provide birth records of their parents, and that the questions were not much about the numbers and that they were about the process and results that they were “less consolation”.

“ECI will now have to send a document. he said.

Mr. Bhattacharya, ECI’s “arbitrary and completely poorly planned and transparent Fiat withdrawal and elections in every election in the last twenty years, as the election roller on the basis of the normal update,” he said.

“The focus should be to facilitate voters in the implementation of franchisees and not create difficulties and exclude voters from the selection process.” He said.

Under the attack from the opposition to revise the election rolls in Bihar, on Monday, June 30, 2025, EC officials said that some voters in which the number of immigrants became more than victory margins as the main reason for the number of immigrants and “demographic integrity”.

Authorities, the exercise is not periodically and Article 326, all appropriate citizens to be on the voters list and according to the law to ensure that the right to keep the right to keep.
