Felony disenfranchisement is the exclusion from voting of people otherwise eligible to vote due to conviction of a criminal offense, usually restricted to the more serious class of crimes deemed felonies. Prisoners cannot vote while in jail in India but can vote when they are released (even if they are convicted of a felony.)

Yes, for general elections. No for police crime commissioner elections, as there is an increase in candidates saying they would defund the police and criminals may vote for that as it would make it easier for them to reoffend
