The Election Commission of India has begun hearings in West Bengal to review the electoral rolls for 32 lakh 'unmapped' voters. These hearings, part of a Special Intensive Revision exercise, will determine if these electors remain on the rolls. The EC has excluded Booth Level Agents (BLAs), representatives of political parties, allowing only government officials and micro-observers to ensure transparency and avoid disruption. The process aims to correct data mismatches and inconsistencies in voter enumeration forms.
