<h1>Lawmakers allege mass voter roll anomalies, demand removal of duplicates, deceased entries, ID linking before local polls</h1> Ruling-party legislators and opposition figures alleged widespread anomalies in the state's electoral rolls, urging the Election Commission to remove duplicate and deceased entries and to link voter records to national ID and death certificates for immediate rectification. They claimed large-scale improper additions, bulk deletions and double registrations-including alleged misuse of ID data across constituencies-and urged postponement of local body elections until lists are cleaned. Officials acknowledged some errors but said delaying polls was extreme. The dispute raises potential legal issues under electoral law regarding roll maintenance, verification procedures and the Commission's duty to ensure accurate and fraud-free voter lists.
