On this Special Report, the focus is on West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s legal battle against the Election Commission of India’s Special Intense Revision (SIR) drive. Banerjee is expected to appear physically before the Supreme Court tomorrow to challenge the process, which she describes as an ‘arbitrary and a flawed revision of electoral rules’. The Chief Minister has warned that the current form of the drive could lead to ‘mass disenfranchisement’ and undermine democratic foundations ahead of the upcoming assembly elections. The report also highlights a heated confrontation between Banerjee and Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. While Banerjee accused the poll body of acting as a ‘BJP agent’ and described the CEC as ‘arrogant’, Election Commission sources claimed the Chief Minister ‘thumped the table’ and left the meeting abruptly. The Bharatiya Janata Party has countered these claims, asserting that the SIR exercise must be conducted to ensure electoral integrity in West Bengal.
