Hyderabad district election authorities will issue notices to 5.82 lakh voters (20.8% of the electorate) whose details could not be mapped with the 2002 electoral rolls. Secunderabad Cantonment leads with nearly 66,450 unmapped voters, followed by Jubilee Hills and Musheerabad. The process includes hearings and document verification, but failure to map does not automatically delete a name, officials told New Indian Express. In Ludhiana, 4.16 lakh entries (15.5% of the previous roll) have been classified as absent, shifted, deceased or duplicate during the ongoing revision. The draft electoral roll, published with October 1 as the qualifying date, now has 22.67 lakh voters. Notices will go to those marked unmapped, with special verification camps on August 16, Hindustan Times reports.
