Overview
- The Election Commission directed a Special Intensive Revision of Punjab’s electoral rolls, with door-to-door checks by booth officers slated for June 25 to July 24, according to PTI.
- Mann, who spoke Saturday, said AAP will post workers alongside booth officers at every polling location to watch the process and stop wrongful deletions.
- AAP MP Malvinder Singh Kang alleged the BJP will try to strike off bona fide voters and urged the poll panel to keep the process transparent.
- Kang later sought special options for NRI voters, including online verification, embassy support, longer deadlines, and fast-track help desks, citing hurdles for those living abroad.
- Reports differ on timing, with Hindustan Times citing a June 15 start, which has fueled calls for clear rules and for removals to target only deaths or permanent moves overseas.
