Congress Demands SIR Suspension and CEC Gyanesh Kumar's Resignation

The Congress party has called for an immediate halt to the Election Commission's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, along with the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. The demand follows a public dispute between the Election Commission and opposition parties over concerns that the revision process could disenfranchise voters. Congress leaders specifically criticised the Commission over changes to Form 6, which governs voter registration, alleging the process lacks adequate safeguards. The party also raised alarms over the deletion of young and Gen Z voters from electoral rolls. The Election Commission has defended its decisions, but the controversy has deepened calls for greater transparency in the revision exercise.
