In a significant ruling, the Supreme Court has instructed the Election Commission of India (ECI) to publish the list of names excluded from the draft electoral roll that was released following the Bihar SIR.

The Supreme Court’s directive emphasizes the need for the ECI to clearly outline the reasons for the deletion of these names. By doing so, it will help individuals understand their status on the electoral roll and the criteria for exclusion. This is a crucial step in maintaining the integrity of the electoral process, as it allows for accountability and ensures that the elections remain fair and just.
Further, the Supreme Court has also mandated that the ECI publicize this information effectively. This means that voters should be able to easily locate the list of deleted names on the ECI’s official website. Accessibility to this information is vital, as it empowers citizens to verify their eligibility and take necessary actions if they find their names missing.
As citizens, we have a right to know how decisions affecting our electoral participation are made. The Supreme Court’s ruling not only upholds this right but also reinforces the importance of transparency in governance.
