The Election Commission had sent a notice asking Isaac to attend a hearing on Thursday, but he did not go. Following his absence, officials decided to remove his name from the Alappuzha list.
An investigation by the Election Commission confirmed the complaints that Isaac was registered to vote in two different places. He is currently registered as a voter in Kuravankonam, Thiruvananthapuram.
Isaac had initially registered on the Alappuzha voters’ list using his office address when he was the MLA for that area. When the first version of the voters’ list came out, Congress leaders complained that this was a case of double registration and was invalid because he no longer lives there. (With input from TNIE)
