🗳️🔥 Supreme Court Slams EC on “Vote Chori” Allegations – Big Transparency Push Coming?

TL;DR

The Supreme Court just gave the Election Commission (EC) a solid reality check 🤯 over the hot “vote chori” controversy 💥. SC asked EC why it can’t publicly display names of voters removed from lists 📝 so people can fix mistakes in 30 days ⏳. This comes after opposition protests 🚩 over alleged voter list manipulation in Bihar. EC now says it will share 65 lakh deleted names in an easy-to-search format 📂 and might even put them online for all to see 🌐.

🚨 Supreme Court Throws Shade at EC

The Supreme Court today was in no mood for excuses 😏. It straight-up asked the EC: “Why can’t you put deleted voter names on a public board or website?” 📢The logic is simple – if someone finds their name missing, they get 30 days to complain and get it fixed 🛠️ instead of depending on local party workers for info.

Currently, the EC only gives these lists to political parties at the booth level 🏠. But now, after SC’s nudge, EC says it will go full transparency mode 💡 — giving people direct access to these 65 lakh deleted names in Bihar.

💣 The “Vote Chori” Drama Explained

This whole drama started because of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter lists in Bihar 🗺️. Opposition parties are shouting from rooftops 🎤 that it’s basically “vote chori” — meaning voter theft.

• Rahul Gandhi called EC “BJP’s Election Chori Branch” 😤

• Tejashwi Yadav claimed some BJP leaders have two voter cards each 😳

• Protests exploded 🚩 with opposition MPs marching from Parliament to the EC office in Delhi 🏛️. Many were detained 🚔.

📊 The Numbers Game

• Bihar has 7.9 crore registered voters.

• 7.24 crore responded to the voter list check ✅.

• That leaves only a smaller chunk potentially affected ❗.

The SC said the problem isn’t about mass deletion, but about a trust deficit 🕵️ between voters and the EC.

🗣️ People’s Perspective – MediaFx Take

See boss, elections are about people’s power 💪. If someone’s name disappears from the list, it’s like stealing their voice 🗣️. Whether it’s Bihar or anywhere else in India, the process must be open, transparent, and fair 📖. Why should only party workers see the deleted names? Every citizen deserves that right ✊.

When information is locked away, only the powerful benefit 🏢. Putting deleted names online will help the common voter — farmers 🌾, workers 🛠️, students 📚 — to claim their rights without begging politicians.

And let’s be real — democracy works best when all votes count equally 🗳️… not when some votes magically vanish!
