If a person who wants to contest the election should be enrolled to voters list.
If he has not enrolled or his name is not appearing in voter list there will be a notification by the govt., to enroll their names to the voters list within the specified period. If he failed to enroll his name within the given period then he will have no chance.
At the time of enrolling the name acknowledgement will be issued by the election officer of the concerned .
constitutency, while filing the nomination to contest the election he can produce it before the election officer. At the time of scrutining the nomination application it can be produced.
Before filing the election petition it is necessary to know that whether his name is enrolled to the voters list or he had given any application to enroll his name?

In your case, the list published after the filing of the nomination paper is definitely an illegal act and anyone out of that list could have made representation to the election commission at that time that I could not file my nomination on that ground but no one challenged it at that relevant time so no chance remains at all to challenge that list and the candidate who stood second has no chance at all because he has contested the election on that list and has thus lost chance
