Advani, Sisodia in voters with 'discrepancies' list

New Delhi - Former deputy prime minister L K Advani, 98, and his family members, as well as former Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia, his wife Seema, and son Meer, are among 33 lakh voters receiving notices for discrepancies in their details provided under the SIR. Advani's daughter Pratibha and son-in-law Jayant have also received notices.

Sisodia's wife Seema's notice points to a discrepancy in her name, while Meer's notice highlights a mismatch between his name and his parents'. The Election Commission has not provided a specific reason for issuing notices to Sisodia, but the discrepancy likely lies in the comparison of his details with the 2002 special intensive revision (SIR) electoral roll.

The process of verification is currently underway, and the final voter list is expected to be published on November 4.
