93% of deleted Bengal voters have won appeals, EC tells SC

The Election Commission of India has informed the Supreme Court that 93 percent of voters whose names were deleted from the electoral rolls in West Bengal successfully won their appeals to be reinstated. The data was presented in response to legal scrutiny regarding the integrity of the voter list during the state's assembly elections.

Despite the high rate of successful appeals, the Election Commission maintained that the exclusions did not have a material impact on the final outcome of the assembly polls. The commission's submission aims to address concerns over administrative processes while asserting that the overall electoral results remained unaffected by the discrepancies in the voter rolls.
