印度选民名册更新导致工人在艰苦的工作时间和无薪情况下死亡, India’s voter roll update causes worker deaths amid grueling hours and no pay, with election commission denying links.

印度的《选民名册特别密集修订》影响到12个州的5亿多选民,引起人们的警觉,因为书亭一级的官员(主要是学校教师和政府工作人员)每天14至15小时工作,工资很低,没有休息。 India’s Special Intensive Revision of voter rolls, affecting over 500 million voters across 12 states, has drawn alarm as booth-level officers—mostly schoolteachers and government staff—report working 14 to 15 hours daily with minimal pay and no rest. 至少有十几起BLO在家庭与选举相关压力有关的情况下死亡,包括据称的自杀和心脏病发作。 At least a dozen BLOs have died under circumstances linked by families to election-related stress, including alleged suicides and heart attacks. 尽管最后期限延长,对工人安全和数据准确性普遍感到关切,但选举委员会没有对询问作出答复,并驳回出于政治动机的连接主张。 The Election Commission has not responded to inquiries and dismissed claims of a connection as politically motivated, despite extended deadlines and widespread concerns over worker safety and data accuracy.
