  "account": "A study conducted by the SABAR Institute and Constitutional Guardians Forum analyzed Special Intensive Revision data, revealing that over 60% of anomaly notices were issued in the Hyderabad periphery, while below 35% were issued in the Hyderabad district. The highest rate was recorded in Quthbullapur at 66.6%, followed by Kukatpally at 65.4%, Uppal at 57%, Medchal at 56% and Serilingampally at 55.8%. The study found that the largest share of notices, 34.9%, were due to \"Unmapped with Last SIR\", indicating a matching failure rather than a defect in the elector's record. Muslim names accounted for a higher share of notices in several reasons, including six or more children (50.5%), progeny age gap of less than nine months (22.3%) and parent-age difference above 50 years (18.3%). However, Muslim names accounted for only 7.5% of \"Unmapped with Last SIR\" notices. The report also identified several polling stations with the highest absolute numbers of notices carrying Muslim names, with Part 91 in Kukatpally having the highest at 1,061. The report noted that 184 polling stations were absent from the published data, leading to an understatement of the totals and notice rates in Sathupalle, Kollapur, Vemulawada and Bhupalpalle.",
  "summary": "According to the report, the reason recorded for the largest share of notices was “Unmapped with Last SIR”, which accounted for 34.9% of all notices",
