Bihar SIR Row: CPI(ML) Leader Dipankar Bhattacharya To Bring Allegedly Excluded Voters From 10 Seats For October 1 Public Hearing

Bihar's CPI(ML) leader Dipankar Bhattacharya has announced that his party will bring forward people from 10 assembly constituencies in the state who were allegedly excluded from the voting process during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Speaking at a press conference, Bhattacharya sought to refute Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary's claim that the SIR exercise was conducted without any irregularities.

He stated that the individuals excluded were alive and residing in Bihar, and these people would be brought to a public hearing to be held by his party on October 1. Bhattacharya demanded an immediate halt to the SIR process, and that the upcoming elections be conducted afresh after conducting a fresh election. He also called for a review of the process for appointing the Chief Election Commissioner.
