1,07,96,415 crore, that is the number of voters facing possible exclusion from the Karnataka’s electoral rolls.
A staggering 1,07,96,415 voters in Karnataka face potential exclusion from the state's electoral rolls, representing nearly one-fifth of the entire electorate. This concerning figure, resulting from the enumeration phase concluded on August 17, categorises individuals as Absent, Shifted, Dead, Duplicate, or Others (ASDDO).
