A showdown has erupted in parliament over the Special Intensive Revision (S.I.R.) of electoral rolls, with opposition MPs staging a protest. Led by figures including Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi, the parliamentarians participated in a ‘dustbin protest’, tearing up placards against the poll roll changes. The opposition contends that the S.I.R. is a targeted move, starting with Bihar, and will extend to states like West Bengal, Kerala, and Tamil Nadu. One speaker stated, “S.I.R. is a tool to cut, loot and delete the votes of the people of this country.” The Election Commission of India maintains the exercise is to remove deceased, shifted, and duplicate names from voter lists, affecting nearly 40 lakh in Bihar. Amid the continuing protests and demands for a discussion on the floor of the house, the Lok Sabha has been adjourned.
