Punjab Polls: Secret Voter List Revision Sparks Speculation

Punjab is gearing up for a potential major overhaul of its voter lists. While the Chief Electoral Officer denies any such large-scale operation, internal communications reveal a significant undertaking is underway.

Letters have been sent to release officers for a special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. This involves a detailed comparison of the 2003 voter data with the current lists.

The exercise is focused at the constituency level, indicating a meticulous and potentially time-consuming process. The scale of the operation has fuelled speculation about upcoming elections or other significant political developments.

This secretive voter list revision raises crucial questions about transparency and the potential impact on the state’s political landscape. The lack of official confirmation only adds to the growing public intrigue and demands for clarity from the Election Commission. The coming weeks will be crucial in understanding the true scope and implications of this initiative.
