Karnataka High Court Stays Investigations into Alleged Voter Deletion Cases
The Karnataka High Court has stayed investigations into alleged fraudulent deletions of voters during the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls, involving BJP booth-level agents and leader Dr. Ravi Basalingappagowda Patil. The court emphasized preserving electronic records and Form 7 applications while noting that electoral authorities have yet to decide on the objections. Petitioners argue investigations are premature and politically motivated, while authorities seek to uncover possible larger conspiracies involving false voter deletions.
