Why is accuracy of the voters’ list necessary for the electoral system?

Correct answer: So that eligible people can vote and incorrect names can be avoided

Correct answer: D — an accurate voters’ list identifies eligible voters in each constituency and helps prevent incorrect, duplicate, or ineligible entries from disturbing the election. It also ensures that people who have the right to vote are not unfairly excluded because of missing or outdated information. Officials use the list to organise polling and verify a voter’s registration. A is wrong because voting rights are not limited to officials. B is wrong because the list supports polling but does not stop lawful campaigning. C is wrong because a list cannot make a candidate win automatically; voters still choose among candidates. Memory cue: an accurate electoral roll protects both sides of democracy—eligible people are included and ineligible or incorrect entries are controlled.
