The opportunities left in Mr. Kumar’s tenure become more clear if I am contrasting how CEC OP Rawat responded after flagging down similar issues.
During the tenure of Mr. Rawat as CEC, I identified a spectacular issue of missing voters. By comparing voter data with domestic size report from the census, I highlighted crores of missing names from the electoral rolls. On-ground verification further confirmed them conclusion,
To address it, I launched Missing voters appWhich provides details of homes with potential missing voters. The app quickly gained popularity, downloading more than 2.5 lakhs.
I met Mr. Rawat and explained that the ECI website had large -scale deletion due to weaknesses. The site lacked basic safety measures, allowing unscrupulous actors to take advantage of it by submitting online wholesale application through Form -7, which is used for objections for voter inclusion or deletion. The system did not require certification or any details about the person presenting the request, which is open to widespread misuse.
Mr. Rawat acted decisively. The website passes through a complete overhaul. A login system was introduced, in which users were banned to present objections to a maximum of seven voters. This remedy, while protecting the integrity of the electoral roll, effectively stopped the wholesale removal of the voter ID. OP Rawat’s tenure simulated how a commitment to active leadership and improvement could strengthen democratic processes and restore public belief in electoral systems.
Mr. Rawat had a positive impact on the election process, despite his tenure lasting for more than three months. This suggests that the difference can lead to decisive.
