EC was asked how many Bangladeshis in Bihar voter lists. The ECI Press Conference today was held amid the widespread allegations of election manipulations and flaws and faults in the voter lists. It is alleged that “some parties” are winning elections because of “illegal Bangladeshis”. Similar allegations were also leveled when the Election Commission announced Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter rolls in Bihar on July 01, 2025. The Election Commission of India, which released the first draft of Bihar Voter Lists on August 01, 2025, has so far found no details of illegal migrants residing in the state.
