Plea flags significant number of duplicate entries as potential threat to integrity of electoral process

- SHEKHAR SINGH

Use tech for accurate voters' list: HC

AHEAD of the Delhi Assembly elections, the Delhi High Court on Wednesday directed the Election Commission of India (EC) to consider utilising advanced technological tools to eliminate duplicate entries from the voters' list.

The directive came as the court disposed of a PIL highlighting the issue of multiple voter registrations in the national capital.

A division bench comprising Acting Chief Justice Vibhu Bakhru and Justice Tushar Rao Gedela addressed the PIL filed by Rashtravadi Adharsh Mahasangh. The petition accused the Delhi Election Commission of failing to update the voter list, despite clear guidelines from the EC.

The PIL pointed out that a significant number of duplicate entries could potentially compromise the integrity of the electoral process.
