Center Owned by Express Publications (Madurai) Ltd.Nearly 30 lakh voters missing from Rajasthan's final SIR rolls but remain on local poll lists
What's behind this
Nearly 30 lakh voters listed for Rajasthan’s local body elections are absent from the Election Commission’s final electoral list released after the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), an activist said. The discrepancy, noted in a PTI report, shows the state election commission is still using a voter list dated January 2025, while the EC’s SIR roll omits those names. Activist Nikhil Dey has warned that the reliance on the older list raises questions about the reliability of the rolls used for the polls.
