More than 2.07 crore voters in Maharashtra are listed as excluded under the SIR process, according to election body data cited by NDTV. The figures relate to exclusions flagged in draft electoral-roll updates, with district-wise counts identifying the scale of the potential removals.
The distribution of the excluded voters is uneven across the state. NDTV reports that the largest concentrations are in Mumbai and nearby areas, including Mumbai Suburban (about 26.63 lakh) and Thane (about 28.61 lakh), along with Pune (about 28.70 lakh). Other districts with substantial counts include Nagpur (about 14.44 lakh), Nashik (about 10.29 lakh), and Mumbai City (about 9.52 lakh). NDTV also highlights that the “worst-affected” pockets include wards such as Sion, Mankhurd, and Worli, and that more than 35 lakh voters in Mumbai and its suburbs are at risk.
While the reports focus on the same election-roll exclusion figures, they emphasize different geographic details—one listing district counts and the other spotlighting high-risk municipal wards in Mumbai. Both frame the issue as linked to draft-roll updates around the scheduled timeline discussed in the reporting.
