india π Opposition slams EC over 97 missed Goa voters π
The Opposition has intensified its critique of the Election Commission following a report highlighting omissions in Goa's final electoral roll. This issue concerns 97 voters, deemed eligible by Electoral Registration Officers, who were excluded post-Special Intensive Revision. The Indian Express report dated September 24, 2026, stated the centralized ECINet system prevented EROs from reversing deletions despite official requests. Jairam Ramesh demanded the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over the compromised process. The Opposition argues this centralized control overrides statutory authority, infringing on citizens' rights.
