<h1>Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls defended as lawful and transparent, urged rejection of challenges</h1> The piece analyses the Election Commission's exercise of its statutory power to undertake a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, defending the SIR as a lawful, discretionary roll-revision mechanism and asserting procedural safeguards including house-to-house verification and document checks; the effect is to justify deletions as non-arbitrary and within commission discretion. It also treats the Citizenship (Amendment) Act framework as a changed legal context motivating scrutiny of citizenship in rolls, resulting in the Commission treating citizenship verification as relevant to voter entitlement within adult suffrage. Challenges alleging lack of prescribed procedure and arbitrariness are resisted as unfounded.
