Regular revision of the voter list fulfils which dual purpose in a democracy?

Correct answer: Adding new eligible names and correcting wrong or ineligible names

Correct answer: A. A voter list must remain current and dependable because it identifies the people entitled to participate in a particular election. During revision, newly eligible citizens can be included, while errors can be corrected and names that are no longer appropriate, such as duplicate or ineligible entries, can be examined and removed according to the proper procedure. These two purposes are inclusion and accuracy. Inclusion prevents eligible citizens from being left out; accuracy reduces mistakes that could affect the fairness and reliability of the election. A is therefore correct. B is wrong because revising an electoral roll neither closes courts nor automatically removes candidates. C is wrong because the process does not stop voting or set tax rates. D is wrong because voter-list revision does not erase constituency boundaries or abolish reservation. Memory cue: revision means “add the eligible, correct the record.”
