Serving as Election Commissioner; dissent reported but denied by commission

The Election Commission said on November 6 that voters marked absent, shifted, dead or duplicate in Delhi and six states can return to the rolls using the enumeration form from the Special Intensive Revision instead of Form 6, the application for new voters. The relief covers Maharashtra, Haryana, Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Telangana and Nagaland, where the revision is still running. It does not apply in states where the first two phases of the revision have finished.
