SC seeks details of 3.66L excluded voters

THE Supreme Court on Tuesday asked the Election Commission to provide details of 3.66 lakh voters who were part of the draft voter list but were excluded from the final electoral roll prepared after Bihar's voter roll revision, saying there is "confusion" over the matter.

The bench asked ECI to submit the list of excluded voters by Thursday.

Noting that there were 65 lakh deletions when the draft list was prepared but names were added in the final list, the court asked whether the add-ons are "deleted names or new names".
