  "account": "Union Minister Piyush Goyal publicly criticized the Congress party for filing a petition with defects in the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process. Goyal stated that the Congress could not even file a proper petition, citing 14 procedural issues flagged by the Supreme Court registry. The Congress dismissed Goyal's criticism, stating that the issues were procedural and would be resolved. The petition, led by Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, alleged large-scale voter deletions and irregularities in the SIR process. A bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant assured that the defects would be cured and the matter listed for hearing. The petition seeks the formation of an independent committee for an audit of deletions and modifications made during the SIR process.",
