The Election Commission has completed its Special Intensive Revision (S.I.R.) of electoral rolls in Bihar, publishing a final voter list with 7.42 crore names. The 90-day exercise, conducted ahead of assembly elections, resulted in the deletion of 47 lakh names, sparking a political debate. The opposition Mahagatbandhan has reacted with caution, with one representative stating, “there is a doubt as to what has happened this time,” referencing closely contested seats in the past. In contrast, the BJP has welcomed the revision. This report examines the controversy surrounding the new voter list, which also follows Rahul Gandhi’s ‘voter adhikar yatra’ and a direct cash transfer scheme by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, questioning if the S.I.R. will become a major issue in the upcoming polls.
