People Against SIR Launch Nationwide Campaign Against Electoral Roll Revision
The People Against SIR (PA-SIR), a coalition of civil society groups, farmers, workers, and students, has announced a nationwide campaign from November 26 to December 20 against the Election Commission of India's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. The protests will include rallies, public meetings, voter list audits, and demonstrations to demand the scrapping of SIR and removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The coalition criticizes recent Election Commission measures as insufficient and plans to emphasize the right to vote and protest, including calls to restore Jantar Mantar as a designated protest site.
