Bombay High Court declines to stay deletion of names from voters’ list in Maharashtra

The Bombay High Court declined to halt the removal of names from Maharashtra’s voters list. Petitioners had sought safeguards against excluding eligible voters and demanded transparency in the SIR methodology. They argued the process lacked clear criteria and oversight. The court said it would review the methodology but did not grant a stay, leaving the deletions in place.
