Activists urge President to ensure no more election held using SIR list

People Against Special Intensive Revision (PASIR), a coalition of diverse class, mass and civil society organizations opposing the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process, have called upon President Droupadi Murmu to prevent any additional elections from being conducted using SIR voter lists. In a statement released on November 7, 2026, the PASIR National Coordination Committee announced their commitment to strengthen their opposition to the SIR.

In Mustafabad, Delhi's election official has filed a complaint with the police, seeking a First Information Report (FIR) over the filing of false Form 7s. The election official's Deputy, Ajay Kumar, confirmed the authenticity of the news report, stating that they had independently verified that 36 out of 37 Form 7s were false or fabricated.

PASIR has made several demands, including the prosecution and removal of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, restoring voting rights for all citizens, reverting to paper ballots, and repealing the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners (Appointment, Conditions of Service and Term of Office) Act of 2023.

They also called for the adoption of the Supreme Court's guidelines to ensure the democratic accountability of the Election Commission of India (ECI). PASIR further advocated for comprehensive electoral reforms, such as implementing proportional representation, taking measures to prevent money and muscle power influences, and legalizing State funding of elections to reinforce and strengthen the democratic system.

The organization vowed to launch a nationwide campaign called Reclaim Our Democracy, starting on November 26 and concluding on December 20, with protests beginning with the reading of the Preamble to the Constitution of India.
