The Election Commission of India is under scrutiny regarding the Special Intense Revision (SIR) of voter lists in Bihar. Responding to concerns from opposition parties and social workers, the EC has reiterated that there is a one-month period, from August 1st to September 1st, for any aggrieved voters or political parties to address anomalies or inconsistencies in the electoral rolls. The issue has drawn significant attention, with questions being raised in Parliament and a case pending before the Supreme Court. A key point of contention is the process of revision and the potential for eligible voters to be accidentally deleted. The EC maintains this window is a long-standing provision, as stated in the SIR order: "from the 1st of August till the 1st of September, that was the time when if any eligible voter wants to get his name added, or if he feels that he’s been left out, then that is the time." The controversy continues to unfold as the matter is set to be heard in the Supreme Court next week.
