Of the 47.56 lakh excluded, nearly 32 lakh are categorised as permanently shifted. Bhushan suggested that EC could be directed to allow those seeking reentering of names in voter lists to apply using Form 8 or use another appropriate mechanism to restore/include names of existing electors that do not figure in the draft rolls.
