What Happened
India's Supreme Court raised concerns about voter exclusions in West Bengal's Special Intensive Revision process. The court noted that if 15% of voters are deleted in constituencies with 2% winning margins, election results could be affected. Around 60 lakh voters remain "under adjudication," unable to vote until judicial officers review their cases. The Electoral Commission completed similar revisions in nine other states without such exclusions.
