Delhi SIR: Aadhaar alone not enough, BLOs asked to seek 'citizenship proof' from voters
In Delhi, electors who submitted only Aadhaar cards in response to notices for “no mapping” during the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls are now facing another round of scrutiny. Booth-level officers (BLOs) across constituencies in the national capital are being asked to collect additional documents as proof of citizenship.
