This special report focuses on the contentious Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar, which resulted in the deletion of nearly 47 lakh names, sparking a fierce debate between activist Yogendra Yadav and former Chief Election Commissioners N. Gopalaswamy and S.Y. Qureshi. Contradicting a former CEC on the Election Commission’s role, Yogendra Yadav stated, ‘I was there in the court. I speak with authority and I’m liable to be punished if I’m misreporting the Supreme Court proceedings.’ The discussion delves into the legality and methodology of the deletions, the controversial role of Aadhaar as a linking document, and the Supreme Court’s interventions. Amid claims of a trust deficit in the Election Commission, highlighted by a recent CSDS survey, the programme explores fears that this exercise could be a precursor to nationwide disenfranchisement, particularly in border states.
