SIR Strikes at Constitution's Heart, Says SC Judge Bhuyan

Supreme Court judge Justice Ujjal Bhuyan condemned large-scale deletion of voter names under the special intensive revision (SIR), calling it intrinsically arbitrary and a negation of the constitutional order. Speaking at Nalsar University in Hyderabad, he said disenfranchising millions violates Articles 326 and 14, and that voter names cannot be deleted without notice and hearing.
