Sunny Leone, Elephant, Pigeon: Voter List In East UP Stumps Officials
LUCKNOW: An exercise of updating voter lists in eastern Uttar Pradesh's Ballia district has produced some disastrous results. Officials in the state faced tough questions after two leaked pages of the updated lists showed photographs of an elephant, a pigeon, a deer and film actress Sunny Leone next to the name of residents of the district.
In the two pages leaked to the media, a photograph of the movie star appears next to the name of a 51-year-old woman while the photo of the elephant appears next to the name of a 56-year-old-man.
These updated voter lists are still being scrutinised and have not been made public. The leaked pages eventually made it to local journalists who sought a clarification from district officials. "This was done by one of our data entry operators. He was recently transferred from a city area to a rural one. We have filed an FIR against this person and we are modifying these details," said Manoj Kumar Singhal, a senior officer with the Ballia district administration.
Voter lists are being updated across Uttar Pradesh before the 2019 Lok Sabha polls. In Ballia, the first deadline was July 15, according to reports in local newspapers. The data for the lists is provided by booth-level officers appointed by the district administration. This data is then entered and matched online by data entry operators. The final list is cleared by senior officers and sources say the errors were discovered when this cross-checking of data was happening.

Ex-Army officer assaulted, robbed at gunpoint by woman he met through matrimonial website
Mathura(UP), Apr 5 (PTI): A retired Army colonel from Haryana has filed a police complaint here, alleging that he was held hostage, assaulted, looted and forced to participate in an "obscene video" at gunpoint with a woman he met through a matrimonial website, police said on Saturday.
The woman from Mathura, who was allegedly in on the plan to rob him, was working with other accomplices, the ex-armyman said in his complaint filed on Thursday.
According to Barsana Station House Officer (SHO) Raj Kamal Singh, Colonel Rajneesh Soni (retired), a resident of Gurugram, reported that he was contacted by a woman from Barsana on a matrimonial website in January. The woman allegedly agreed to marry him, and they began communicating.
The woman allegedly persuaded the colonel to visit Barsana on January 25, requesting that he visit the Radharani temple. When he arrived, she arranged for his stay at a guest house and took him on a tour of the area, including a visit to the temple, the complainant said.
After returning to the guest house, the woman and her accomplices allegedly told the colonel that her brother had been involved in an accident and they needed to leave immediately. They then led him to a waiting car.
"Once outside the town limits, the colonel alleges that he was attacked by the occupants of the car. They seized his phone, physically assaulted him, and forced him to contact relatives and friends to transfer money," the SHO said.
"He was then taken back to the guest house, where he was allegedly forced to participate in obscene videos and photographs at gunpoint. He was threatened that the videos would be made public if he reported the incident," the officer said.
The colonel has alleged that his purse, bag, gold chain, debit card and Rs. 12,000 in cash were stolen from the guest house.
After an unsuccessful attempt at locating the perpetrators himself, the colonel finally reported the incident to the Barsana police two days ago, he said.
"A case has been registered under relevant sections of the BNS and all facts are being investigated. Further action will be taken as per facts found in the investigation," the SHO said.
