The ECI built a portal to process 38.31 lakh appeals from deleted Bengal voters.
That portal; per the minutes of 12+ tribunal judges; cannot serve notices, cannot hold virtual hearings, cannot upload appellant documents, cannot restore a voter's name even after a judge orders it, and cannot let a voter download the tribunal's own order.
A notice format approved by judges in May 2026 has "not seen the light of day till date", in their own words.
38.31 lakh appeals filed. 1.26 lakh disposed. 37 lakh pending.
The EC didn't build a remedy portal. It built a delay machine. And it deployed it after the election was already gone.
Is this negligence or is this the point? /IndianExpress/…
