West Bengal is conducting hearings for "unmapped" voters as part of a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, with approximately 3.2 million people called to establish linkage with the 2002 electoral roll. The Trinamool Congress has criticized the Election Commission of India (ECI), calling the process "inhuman" for summoning elderly and disabled individuals to camps instead of their homes. Meanwhile, voters are queuing at centers to provide documentation, with some facing issues due to technical glitches in mapping older records, leading to a potential reduction in the number of voters requiring hearings.
