@doc_sacharr@dhruv_rathee@BainsSarv18 No illegal immigrant was identified amongst those whose names were deleted, sir. Such blatant misuse of muscle, money and machinery can have no justification in any civilised democracy.
@doc_sacharr@dhruv_rathee@BainsSarv18 Sir agreed to all your points and that SIR/poll rigging are not the only reasons for this result but these were a significant issue that one can’t deny. Mass disenfranchisement cannot be justified in any democracy. Time for TMC to introspect and for BJP to keep calm.
@doc_sacharr@dhruv_rathee@BainsSarv18 Sir, SIR per se is not being opposed by anyone. It’s a regular exercise which had been happening in the past as well. It is mainly the timing of the exercise that’s being challenged. Coming to Kerala, there were no mass deletions as in Bengal, 12% shrink in electoral rolls.
27 Lakh Voters were deleted in West Bengal.
These were not 'dead people' or 'bangladeshis'. These were real people who had already appealed to get their votes restored. The Supreme court could’ve delayed the West Bengal elections until the tribunals finished hearing the appeals of these voters. But they didn’t. Only around 1607 voters were restored in time by phase 2 of these elections. Almost every appeal that was heard turned out to be a wrongful deletion.
In any functional democracy, this would not count as a free and fair election where a large section of voters have lost their voting rights. I'm not saying that TMC would've won for sure if they were added back, maybe BJP would still win, but the question is about the fairness of these elections.
Free and fair elections are a spectrum. Ever since Delhi-Maharashtra-Bihar-Bengal, this needle has moved more and more towards being unfair. Each time somehow the opposition parties participate as usual in the electoral process thinking that they can still pull of a win despite the compromised EC, ED, CBI etc. and each time they have been proven wrong after 2024 Lok Sabha. The question is, at what point will they feel that the level of unfairness is so unfair that elections should be boycotted?
I personally feel TMC should have refused to participate in these elections until all those 27 lakh appeals were finished being heard.
Every sensible person already knew that the Liquor Scam was Fake
Putting opposition leaders in jail before elections on false charges is a crime against nation and India’s democracy that Narendra Modi has committed.
Also: PM Cares Fund is the Real Scam.
