A study by the Sabar Institute revealed that approximately 70% of the over 27 lakh voters under adjudication during West Bengal's electoral roll revision ahead of the Assembly elections were Muslim. Women constituted 51% of this group. These voters were flagged for logical inconsistencies such as mismatches in parental names, unusually small age gaps between voters and their parents, and having more than six children. The revision process, which began in February, initially excluded over 61 lakh voters, with further exclusions continuing through supplementary lists and adjudication of around 60 lakh 'doubtful' cases. By April 6, nearly 11.9% of West Bengal's electorate had been removed from the rolls. Approximately 34 lakh appeals were pending before appellate tribunals, with 27 lakh filed by those excluded from the voter list. Tribunals had reinstated 1,607 names.
