Election Commissioner Flagged Over Delhi Voter Roll Name Discrepancy
Election officials are checking voter names in Delhi.
They found that Sukhbir Singh Sandhu used a different version of his name on a form.
His form said “Dr S S Sandhu,” while the voter list said “Sukhbir Singh Sandhu.”
Because of this difference, officials marked his record for possible notice.
However, he has not received a notice yet.
Local election officers will check his documents.
They may correct the mismatch after reviewing them.
This is part of a larger review of Delhi’s voter lists.
