Congress Alleges Targeted Voter Deletions Threatening Democracy
The Congress party is raising alarm bells over what it describes as a systematic and targeted effort to delete eligible voters from electoral rolls across several states. Party leader K.C. Venugopal has formally written to the Election Commission of India, alleging that the misuse of Form-7 is disproportionately affecting marginalized groups, undermining their right to vote. This raises urgent questions: What measures will the Election Commission implement to safeguard democratic processes? How many eligible voters have been unjustly removed? And who will be held accountable for these alleged actions against the fundamental rights of citizens? As reported by The Hindu, the Congress party is demanding immediate intervention to address these serious concerns.
