Thrissur district just finished a major voter list clean-up, checking records across all 13 Assembly constituencies as part of Kerala's Special Intensive Revision (SIR).
Out of over 24 lakh voters, hearings were conducted for 1,95,350 voters, and another 1.6 lakh were found with discrepancies.
Thrissur alone had 2,56,842 voters proposed for removal
3,030 voters—including people who've moved away, foreign citizens, and those who have passed away—were found ineligible and Assistant Electoral Registration Officers have issued orders to remove their names to keep the rolls accurate.
Thrissur alone had 2,56,842 voters proposed for removal, helping Kerala move closer to fairer elections and reducing chances of fraud—a big deal with increased political scrutiny lately.
