Sikkim Completes 1.15 Lakh Hearings

The state of Sikkim has recently concluded a massive exercise of verifying its electoral rolls. As a result of this effort, more than 1.15 lakh hearings have been completed. These hearings were crucial in identifying and weeding out ineligible electors from the voter list. A significant outcome of this process has been the identification of 12,929 electors who have been found ineligible to cast their votes. This move is expected to contribute to the integrity and purity of the electoral process in Sikkim. The completion of such a large number of hearings underscores the commitment of the state authorities to ensuring that the voting process is fair and transparent. By removing ineligible voters, the state aims to prevent any potential irregularities in future elections.
