Migrant Workers Face Travel Hardships for Electoral Roll Hearings

Migrant workers, including Samed Sheikh from Uttar Pradesh, faced significant travel challenges and financial loss to attend Special Intensive Revision (SIR) hearings for electoral enrollment. Notices were issued with short deadlines, forcing many to travel long distances in crowded conditions. Sheikh's case highlights issues with electoral roll accuracy, where an entry from 2002 without a surname led to a summons requiring his presence to clarify identity, disrupting his work during peak season.
