What is EC’s Finally Final? 1/21

What I say in this thread will show how baseless are the remarks made by the unofficial spokespersons of ECI in response to my thread ‘Decoding Bihar Miracle’. I will also raise a few additional concerns. What is EC’s Finally Final? 2/21

EC release No. ECI/PN/352/2025 dated 12.11.2025 gives polling % as 67.13. It does not tell us that it doesn’t include postal ballots.
Again EC release No. ECI/PN/353/2025 dated 13.11.2025 repeats the % as 67.13. This time too there is no rider. Image

Decoding Bihar Miracle - 1/12

ECI has to tell the nation how it counted 1,77,673 more than the polled votes?
Why did it change the total number of electors twice after announcing the final SIR figure?
Why did the ECI not announce the gross number of votes polled in the state? Decoding Bihar Miracle - 2/12

As per EC press note No. ECI/PN/313/2025 dated 30/09/2025 the total electors after it ‘successfully completed’ SIR in Bihar is
~ 7.42 crores.
Why approximation (~) instead of actual number? Image
