Owaisi demands further extension of SIR deadline
‘Many who have been marked shifted are at the same location while several categorised as deceased are alive’
All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen president Asaduddin Owaisi on Tuesday criticized the extension of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) deadline to November 9. The Hyderabad MP urged that it be extended by an additional four weeks. Serving in the Karwan Assembly constituency, Owaisi said the extra time would benefit the numerous individuals who received notices.
He observed 59,470 anomalies in the constituency, 40,750 unmapped cases, and a total of 100,223 notices issued. Owaisi also expressed concern over voters being marked as "shifted" in electoral rolls, despite residing at the same address. Additionally, he highlighted instances where voters were erroneously listed as deceased while they were alive.
