An analysis by Souptik Halder, along with Ashin Chakraborty and Sabir Ahamed, found that 56.7% of voters flagged under the ‘under adjudication’ category are Muslims, compared to their 20% share in the constituency’s population as per the 2011 Census.Earlier findings had shown Muslims accounted for 22.7% of voters marked as ‘Absent, Shifted, or Dead/Duplicate’ (ASDD), with the ‘unmapped’ share at around 26%, roughly in line with their population share. However, this rose sharply to 52% in the ‘logical discrepancy’ list.According to Chakraborty, despite Bhowanipore being a mixed-community constituency, Muslims are disproportionately represented among those under scrutiny. Halder added that booth-wise analysis of 2021 and 2024 data suggests that if voters under adjudication are unable to vote, the TMC’s winning margin could drop significantly, and in some booths even disappear.Follow the latest election results 2026, live updates, winner lists, constituency-wise results, party-wise trends and full coverage for Tamil Nadu election results, West Bengal election results, Kerala election results, Assam election results and Puducherry election results results on Times of India.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.

A 25-year-old murdered his wife by crushing her head with a stone in a forest in the presence of their son. He then rode for 2km into a densely forested area and abandoned the kid BHOPAL: A two-year-old boy, unclothed waist down, walked barefoot alone for nearly 20 hours through a forest full of wild animals after his father allegedly killed his mother and abandoned him in a remote patch of Madhya Pradesh.The stunning survival story ended with cops finding the weak and dehydrated toddler early Sunday in a remote patch along the Vidisha-Raisen border after arresting his father. So hungry and thirsty was the baby that he grabbed food and water the cops offered him before he was rushed to hospital and stabilised.“It was a miracle that he survived,” said Sonali Gupta, sub-divisional police officer (SDPO) of Begumganj, the pocket where the rescuers found the child, nearly 2km from the spot where he had been abandoned.Election Results 2026Election results: From Mamata to Vijayan, top leaders face crucial mandate testWest Bengal election results: Who wins Bengal? Counting day holds the answerTamil Nadu election results: Can Stalin retain power or will AIADMK stage a comeback?The horrors started unfolding Saturday noon when the child’s father, a 25-year-old from a village in Vidisha district’s Haidergarh area, allegedly crushed his wife’s head with a stone, police said. Their son was with them at the time.After the killing, the man took the child on his motorcycle and rode about 2km into adjoining Raisen district’s Begumganj belt. He dumped the child near a stream behind a temple in the dense forest and fled, leaving his motorcycle behind. The area, the police said, is known for the movement of wild animals, making survival a challenge even for adults.The accused was later arrested after the woman’s body was discovered. According to the police, the man tried to fob off investigators during his initial rounds of questioning, not even mentioning that he had dumped his son. This delayed rescue efforts.Later, as the cops expanded the probe and got in touch with other family members, they learnt about the missing toddler. By then, darkness had set in. Multiple teams were formed and a search was launched. Police teams scoured jungles, farms, water bodies and isolated patches through the night, using torches and local inputs to trace the child.“We combed the area continuously. Around 8.30am on Sunday, we heard a faint sound and found the child walking,” SDPO Gupta said. Investigators suspect the child had walked through the night. Investigators said the terrain where the child was abandoned is uneven, has thick vegetation and poor visibility at night, increasing the risk of injury, exposure and encounters with animals. None of the perils appeared to have come in the way of the braveheart boy in his fight for survival and of being the sole eyewitness to his mother’s murder.Follow the latest election results 2026, live updates, winner lists, constituency-wise results, party-wise trends and full coverage for Tamil Nadu election results, West Bengal election results, Kerala election results, Assam election results and Puducherry election results on Times of India.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosNepal Objects To India-China Plan To Conduct Kailash Mansarovar Yatra Via LipulekhIndia-Linked LPG Tanker MT Sarv Shakti Heads To Visakhapatnam After Crossing HormuzPassenger Opens Emergency Exit Door On Air Arabia Flight While Taxiing At Chennai Airport, ArrestedAhead Of Counting, Gunmen Open Fire At BJP Leader’s House In Bengal’s Noapara‘I Am Also A Victim’: Vinesh Phogat Identifies As Complainant In Brij Bhushan Sexual Harassment CaseBJP MP Sandeep Pathak Claims ‘No Information’ On FIRs, Alleges Misuse Of State Machinery In PunjabIndian Startup Launches Mission Drishti, World’s First OptoSAR Satellite, Aboard SpaceX Falcon 9Diljit Dosanjh Confronts Khalistan Supporters at Calgary Concert, Explains KBC AppearanceDelhi Approves ₹48,000 Crore Metro Expansion Plan To Connect Outer Regions With City CoreVietnam President To Lam’s First State Visit To India: What It Means For New Delhi-Hanoi Ties123PhotostoriesMorning affirmation at 5 am: Thoughts that hit different when the world is still asleepYou’re brushing your teeth wrong: What dentist says most people missHow to make Pudina Paratha for summer breakfast5 Bengali breads every foodie should try5 phases every marriage quietly moves through- And how to deal with them5 rare watches from Sachin Tendulkar’s collection you should knowYou’re walking, but not like this: How interval walking improves fitness naturallySubtle signs you might be vitamin D deficient, and what your body is trying to tell youRed vs green Apple: How to choose the right one for your health goalsRihanna to Katy Perry: 7 most bizarre Met Gala looks that stole the spotlight123Hot PicksAssam key constituenciesKerala key constituenciesPuducherry election resultsTamil Nadu constituenciesAjay Pal SharmaBengal Poll RecordHimanta Biswa SarmaTop TrendingWest Bengal Assembly Election ResultsAssam Assembly Election ResultsTamil Nadu Assembly Election ResultsKerala Assembly Election ResultsPuducherry Assembly Election ResultsPetrol, Diesel, LPG priceCBSE Class 12th ResultNEET 2026: Exam-day guideBSE AP SSC Class 10th ResultIPL Orange Cap
