Author and blogger Kushal Mehra dismissed claims of large-scale voter disenfranchisement, arguing that many concerns stem from confusion about the electoral roll process rather than evidence of a conspiracy. Drawing on his experience in voter-registration drives, Mehra said discrepancies do exist but criticized attempts to extrapolate individual cases into broader allegations. He also opposed protest methods that disrupt public life, saying inconvenience to ordinary citizens cannot be justified regardless of which political group is protesting.
