With more women in 17 of 28 constituencies, Karnataka voter ratio at nearly 1:1; young electors buck trend

IndiaTimes Wednesday, 20 March 2024
As per the figures released on March 16, there are 999 females per 1,000 in Karnataka, better than the 997 in the final draft released in Jan 2024. However, young voters buck this trend, just as in Jan to touch 858 from 856 two months ago. Skewed ratio among young voters could be for multiple reasons, but as TOI had reported in Jan, it is primarily attributed to poor sex ratio at birth during 2005-06.
