<h1>Slum fire victims risk exclusion from Special Intensive Revision due to destroyed IDs and delayed reissuance</h1> Residents of multiple slum settlements whose Aadhaar, voter ID and PAN were destroyed in recent fires fear exclusion from the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls because reissuance and verification remain pending for many, particularly migrants. Election authorities' door-to-door verification and pending applications risk those affected being marked 'non-existent,' raising disenfranchisement and administrative law concerns. Municipal officials report coordination to mitigate hardship, but practical delays persist. Legal issues include compliance with electoral law and due-process obligations, adequacy of alternative identity verification (affidavits, biometrics), and potential remedies through expedited reissuance, provisional inclusion on rolls, or urgent relief from electoral authorities or courts.
