Focus on Accessibility and Efficiency

This move aims to simplify the process for voters, allowing them to easily re-verify their details using readily available documents. The Supreme Court emphasized the importance of accessibility and minimizing hurdles for citizens participating in the electoral process.

Court Emphasizes Inclusive Approach

The court stated, “In our opinion, it will be in the interest of justice if these three are included,” highlighting their commitment to ensuring a fair and inclusive election process. This decision will likely have a significant positive impact on voter turnout and participation in Bihar.
