Delhi Electoral Roll Revision and Punjab NRI Voter Disengagement Highlight Challenges
Delhi's ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) may delete 20-25% of names from electoral rolls due to high population mobility and unupdated registrations, with final figures expected after draft publication. The process has raised concerns about citizenship verification, as deletions have affected individuals holding valid documents, prompting Supreme Court clarifications. Meanwhile, Punjab's diaspora shows declining electoral participation, citing unmet promises and governance issues, reflecting broader voter disenchantment ahead of state elections.
