Seeking to counter opposition parties’ allegations of fudging in voter data, the Election Commission of India (ECI) on Saturday (August 16, 2025) said it seems that some political parties did not examine the electoral rolls at the “appropriate time” to point out errors to the poll machinery and noted that it welcomes a scrutiny of the document to help its officials remove flaws.
In a statement, the ECI said the period for raising claims and objections after the draft voters’ list is published is the appropriate time for parties to flag flaws.
