BJP Allies Seek Clarity From Election Commission Over Voter Lists

Three parties that support the Bharatiya Janata Party want the Election Commission to explain concerns about voter lists.

They say clearer information could help people trust elections.

The concerns followed a report about objections by two Election Commissioners.

The report said the objections involved voter forms, additions and deletions, and control of voter-list data.

Opposition parties have also criticized the Chief Election Commissioner and the voter-list revision process.

The Election Commission says disagreements during internal discussions are normal.

It says its final decisions were made unanimously.

One ally said the revision process in Andhra Pradesh was transparent.

Another ally said the controversy had created confusion among the public.
