Over 61,000 Form-7 applications filed by election officials in Karnataka, none cites reason
Over 61,000 Form‑7 applications were filed by Karnataka election officials, but none list a reason. Officials say they were told to submit the forms for voters who had moved, were duplicates, underage, deceased or non‑citizens, yet the auto‑generated documents left the justification field empty. Form‑7 removes names from electoral rolls, raising serious concerns about compliance.
