Petition In Supreme Court Wants 3-Month Extension For UPs SIR, Says Timeline 'Unrealistic' | News18

The Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) Azad Trust moved the Supreme Court seeking a three-month extension to the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Uttar Pradesh, arguing that the current four-week window is administratively unworkable for a state with over 15.35 crore voters.Filed as a public interest litigation, the petition argues that compressing the verification exercise into a month risks large-scale disenfranchisement, particularly among rural voters, and could result in erroneous deletions from the rolls. n18oc_indian18oc_breaking-newsNews18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
