Data Probe on Bihar’s Deleted Voter Lists
• Analysis of the Election Commission of India (ECI)’s Assembly part-wise list of over 65 lakh deleted electors in Bihar reveals eight distinct categories of anomalies.
• Eight categories of anomalies were identified:
• 80 parts show unusually high proportions of young deaths, 127 parts display high gender bias in deletions, 1,985 parts have abnormally high deletion rates, 412 parts report excessive deaths, 7,216 parts show high death proportions, 973 parts show 100% death-based deletions, 5,084 parts have high numbers of “absent” voters, and 663 parts show suspicious patterns of “permanently shifted” women.
• High gender bias in deletions: Assembly parts/stations where at least 50 people are recorded as deceased, with at least half being under 50 years of age.
• Abnormally high deletion rates: Parts/poll stations with more than 200 deletions, far exceeding typical rates.
• High death proportions: Over 75% of deletions attributed to deaths.
• Mass “absent” classifications: More than 50 voters marked as absent per part/station.
• Suspicious women “shifts”: At least 60 voters marked as shifted, with 75%+ being women.
• Geographic and demographic patterns: High concentrations of anomalies in Purnia, Kishanganj, and Champaran districts near international borders.
• Minority-concentrated areas: Many affected parts appear to be in areas with significant Muslim populations.
• Questions: What verification was conducted before marking voters as deceased? Why do certain constituencies show high concentration of anomalies? Why do women seem to be excluded more?
• ECI should examine polling stations and verify the deleted voters and establish a way of restoring excluded voters if they have been excluded erroneously.
