Allahabad High Court Seeks Explanation for 138 Voter Omissions in Amethi
The Allahabad High Court has asked the Uttar Pradesh State Election Commission to explain the removal of 138 names from Amethi's final voter list, despite their inclusion in the draft electoral roll and previous lists. Petitioners from Gopalpur village allege their names were omitted without notice, while about 200 living individuals were missing and 50 deceased persons remained on the list. The court questioned the deletion process and has scheduled further hearings for October 29 as the state seeks time to respond.
