<h1>Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls faces constitutional challenge; verdict reserved after final hearings on scope of revision powers</h1> Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls was challenged on whether the Election Commission of India (ECI) has constitutional and statutory power to conduct a large-scale SIR; the challenge asserts such power lies with the central government, and the court reserved its verdict on that question. The admissibility of Aadhaar and other documents as proof of identity was contested; the court indicated that potential forgery alone is not a ground to reject the biometric identifier and that statutorily recognised documents cannot be discarded due to private involvement in issuance, affecting the evidentiary treatment of specified identity documents. The ECI defends SIR as purging ineligible names from rolls.
