Supreme Court Questions Bihar Voter List Revision, Allows ECI To Continue Exercise | India Today

The Supreme Court has taken up a petition challenging the special revision of voter lists in Bihar. While allowing the Election Commission to continue the exercise, the court raised several questions about the process. Key issues include whether the EC has the power to conduct a citizenship test, the urgency and timing of the revision, and how due process will be ensured for those excluded. The court suggested de-linking the exercise from upcoming Bihar elections and including additional documents like Aadhaar for verification. The EC opposed these suggestions, maintaining it has full powers for the revision. The case highlights tensions between electoral roll purification efforts and potential disenfranchisement of voters.
