According to the Commission, most of the people whose names have been removed are:
- Those who are no longer in this world (deceased).
- Those who have changed their homes and shifted somewhere else.
- Whose names were recorded by mistake at two places (duplicate).
Meaning, the aim is right to stop fake voting and keep the list correct.
