Amid opposition protests, EC starts Bihar rolls revision

IndiaTimes Saturday, 28 June 2025 ()
Ignoring opposition protests, the Election Commission has initiated a special intensive revision of electoral rolls in Bihar. This exercise requires electors enrolled after 2003 to submit citizenship proof, with 98,450 booth level officers conducting door-to-door verification. The EC justifies the revision by citing constitutional requirements for voter eligibility and adherence to electoral roll revision rules before elections.
