Bengaluru: Ahead of the forthcoming Assembly elections, Karnataka State Election Commission has announced final voters list. There are a total of 5,05,48,553 (5.05 crore) voters including 2,54,49,775 (2.54 crore) male, 2,50,94,326 (2.50 crore) female and 4,502 others, eligible to exercise their franchise, said Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Manoj Kumar Meena on Thursday.
Addressing media persons, he said, “The final revised voters list of 221 Assembly Constituencies of the State are ready, while the list of remaining three Constituencies will be announced after Jan. 15, with the report of Regional Commissioner (RC) awaited. Following the allegations of dropping voters names from the lists in Mahadevapura, Shivajinagar and Chikkapet Assembly Constituencies, the RC has been directed to vet into the same. If the names are deliberately dropped, such names should be included. Hence, the voters list of these three Constituencies will be announced once the report is received from the RC.”
