India's Election Commission publishes Bihar's draft electoral rolls on Aug 1, aiming for accuracy in upcoming elections.

The Election Commission of India will publish Bihar's draft electoral rolls on August 1, 2025, allowing a month for electors and political parties to submit claims and objections. Over 91.69% of the state's registered voters submitted forms during a recent revision process. The move aims to improve the accuracy of the electoral rolls before the upcoming assembly elections. However, concerns have been raised about the potential disenfranchisement of poor and migrant voters due to document requirements and a lack of awareness.
