Supreme Court Verdict On SIR Sparks Fresh Attack On INDIA Bloc By BJP's Sudhanshu Trivedi

The political battle over the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise escalated sharply after the Supreme Court upheld the poll body’s authority to conduct the voter roll revision. BJP spokesperson Sudhanshu Trivedi launched a fierce attack on the Congress and the INDIA alliance, accusing them of opposing the exercise for political reasons and alleging that the opposition was shielding illegal infiltrators. Welcoming the verdict, Trivedi said the Supreme Court had validated the BJP’s long-standing position on electoral transparency, migration-related discrepancies and voter roll verification. He also targeted Rahul Gandhi directly, questioning the Congress party’s organisational commitment, governance record and stand on social and national issues.
