What happened
Bihar's electoral roll stood at around 75.5 million as of October 1, compared with about 74.1 million in September 2025, according to state-election-office figures reported by Hindustan Times.
Context and what is known
The year-on-year net change does not by itself establish how many specific individuals were wrongly added or removed.
Why the distinction matters
A comparison between two electoral-roll snapshots is not the same as a count of new registrations alone. Additions, deletions, corrections and the dates on which the rolls were measured can all affect the net change. To judge the figures responsibly, the Election Commission's published tables and definitions should be checked before drawing conclusions about any party, constituency or election outcome.
