The interview focuses on the controversial electoral roll revision in Bihar. Former Election Commissioner Ashok Lavasa discusses the legitimacy of the exercise, its timing just months before elections, and the distinction made between pre-2003 and post-2003 voters. He raises concerns about the potential disenfranchisement of eligible voters due to stringent documentation requirements. Lavasa emphasizes the need for clarity on the new procedures and suggests pausing the exercise to address stakeholders’ concerns. The discussion also touches on the Election Commission’s authority to devise its own procedures for voter enrollment and the broader implications of this revision on citizenship status.
