INDIA bloc leaders, including RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, have intensified protests over the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls and alleged irregularities. The demonstrations have triggered a political exchange, with opposition parties demanding electoral safeguards and BJP leaders questioning their protests.

The Supreme Court has clarified that it has neither approved nor disapproved the modified Form 6 used by the Election Commission of India during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar. A three-judge bench led by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant issued notice on a fresh petition questioning the Election Commission's functioning and scheduled the matter alongside similar petitions listed for October 27.
