<h1>Fire-hit slum residents fear loss of identity documents may lead to exclusion from voter roll verification.</h1> Fire destruction of Aadhaar, voter ID and PAN cards in Kolkata slums risks exclusion from the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls because reissuance and verification remain pending. Required biometrics, photographs and affidavits, and absence of household members working out of state, have delayed completion of verification forms. Municipal officials report coordination to prevent hardship, but residents continue to fear being marked as non existent or excluded during door to door SIR verification.
