A major electoral overhaul looms as the Election Commission greenlights Special Intensive Revision (SIR) across India, with Delhi BJP head Virender Sachdeva championing it as the antidote to illegal immigration in voter rolls.
Sachdeva spotlighted how SIR will unmask and uproot names of illegal Bangladeshi and Rohingya residents, a contentious issue in the national capital. His remarks underscore BJP’s persistent campaign against voter list adulteration.
Proactively, the party has assembled district-level teams with embedded legal experts to navigate voters through the process. This support infrastructure aims to minimize disruptions while maximizing deletions of ineligible entries.
The ambitious SIR phase envelops states from Himachal Pradesh to Tripura, commencing April 2026. It’s a strategic ECI maneuver to fortify democracy against fraud.
Sachdeva reiterated BJP’s alliance with ECI for precision and transparency, positioning the revision as a cornerstone for credible elections. As implementation nears, Delhi’s political arena braces for transformative changes.
