<h1>Opposition demands postponement of local elections until electoral rolls fixed amid allegations of manipulation, missing voters, and transparency failures</h1> Opposition leaders requested postponement of imminent local body elections until electoral rolls are fully rectified, alleging systemic manipulation, duplicate and missing addresses, unauthorized additions/deletions, refusal to provide rolls to contesting parties, and nonuse of VVPAT/CCTV transparency. They met state election officials and urged widespread correction, citing lack of FIRs on alleged tampering and alleging external control of the electoral database. Election authorities relied on higher-court guidance to proceed. The ruling party dismissed the demands as pre-election narrative-building. The dispute raises potential legal issues: adequacy of electoral roll maintenance, transparency and evidence standards for alleged tampering, duty to investigate complaints, and whether courts or election bodies must delay polls pending remediation.
