The civil society group 'My Vote, My Right' has expressed serious concerns regarding the voter roll mapping exercise conducted by the Karnataka State Election Commission. They argue that the process is opaque and could lead to the disenfranchisement of marginalized communities, noting a stark discrepancy between the 4.46 crore voters reportedly mapped and only 19.13 lakh who have been officially verified. The group criticized the requirement for voters to locate their parents' or grandparents' names from the 2002 voter rolls, which they believe will exclude many individuals, particularly from Adivasi, migrant worker, and transgender communities. Furthermore, they pointed out that progeny mapping is currently only applicable to voters aged 18 to 39, leaving those over 40 unable to verify their eligibility. The group has called for the Karnataka Chief Electoral Officer to publicly share the guidelines and protocols for the mapping process, emphasizing the need for transparency as this exercise precedes the controversial Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
