‘I am an Indian citizen’: Ex-envoy who served in 3 nations flags SIR process

Former Indian diplomat Navdeep Suri has shared his experience with the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Punjab, highlighting the difficulties he faces in proving his citizenship status. Despite having represented India in three nations, Suri was asked to provide unspecified documents to establish his citizenship during the SIR process.

He expressed concern about the impact this process could have on ordinary citizens, questioning whether the government's efforts to ease the electoral process would extend to those facing these challenges.
