This special report from India First focuses on the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls across 12 states and its political fallout. Amid allegations of ‘vote chori’ and the targeting of marginalised communities by the opposition, CEC Gyanesh Kumar insisted that ‘Not one complaint had been made in writing to the EC about the special intensive revision.’ The programme, anchored by Gaurav Sawant, explores the constitutional mandate for this purification of the voter list in states like West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala, which the ECI says will cover 51 crore voters. It investigates whether the opposition’s claims of a threat to democracy are valid or merely political rhetoric ahead of elections, especially after a similar contentious exercise was completed in Bihar.
