A voter list for Ward 29 of Kota Municipal Corporation shows a Hanuman picture instead of the photograph of Jagdish, son of Ramchandra, prompting officials to locate the missing voter ten days before the election.
The electoral roll for Part 12 of Ward 29 in Kota Municipal Corporation lists Jagdish, son of Ramchandra, at serial number 1294. However, the photograph column displays an image of the Hindu deity Hanuman instead of the applicant's picture.
The anomaly was discovered ten days before the scheduled municipal elections, raising concerns about the accuracy of the voter database. Election officials have launched a search to verify Jagdish's identity and to correct the entry before voting begins.
Local authorities have been asked to review the entire list for similar errors and to ensure that all eligible voters have their correct photographs on record, thereby safeguarding the integrity of the upcoming polls.
