Prakash Raj Claims Name Removed from Voter List Amid Revision Process

Actor Prakash Raj announced that his name has been removed from the electoral rolls in Bengaluru, amidst the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the city's electoral rolls. He shared this information in a video posted on his social media account, stating that he is among the 6.5 million voters affected by this revision phase.

The SIR in Bengaluru has drawn attention, as nearly half of the city's electors are categorized under ASDDO, which includes individuals who are Absent, Shifted, Duplicate, Dead, and Others, according to reports. This concern highlights the scale of the issues faced during the house-to-house enumeration process.

In response to the alleged removal of his name, Prakash Raj expressed his determination to restore his voting rights. He has committed to taking steps to address this issue, emphasizing the importance of electoral integrity.

Raj's comments raised questions about the overall process of the electoral roll revision in Karnataka, particularly in Bengaluru, which has expressed significant concerns related to voter registration accuracy.

The ongoing SIR has implications for many voters in the region, and further developments are expected as individuals assess their electoral status amidst these changes.
