Supreme Court Reviews Special Intensive Revision of Electoral Rolls in Uttar Pradesh and Kerala
The Supreme Court has closely scrutinized the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls across several Indian states, including Uttar Pradesh and Kerala. It declined to extend deadlines for Kerala's SIR but allowed petitions to submit claims of voter exclusion. In Uttar Pradesh, the court directed the Election Commission to investigate allegations of bulk Form 7 submissions aimed at deleting voters, particularly targeting specific communities. The Election Commission maintains that false forms were identified and not acted upon, while petitioners seek further judicial review and corrective measures.
