Why Tamil Nadu & West Bengal Report Record Turnout | 82% vs 89% Explained

Tamil Nadu and West Bengal have reported unusually high voter turnout in the 2026 Assembly elections — 82% in Tamil Nadu and nearly 89% in West Bengal. But do these numbers reflect only voter enthusiasm, or is there more behind the data?
This explainer breaks down how Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls led to the removal of lakhs of names in both states, and how that affects turnout percentages. It also explains the simple math behind voter turnout and why reduced voter lists can push percentages higher.
The video also looks at real factors like first-time voters, political competition, and ground-level mobilisation that are driving participation across both states.
