The Election Commission of India has informed the Madras High Court that it will begin the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls in Tamil Nadu and other poll-bound states in a week.

The Commission submitted before a bench of Chief Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava and Justice G. Arul Murugan that the SIR, similar to the one held in Bihar, will be conducted in all states which are facing elections in early 2026.

The court was hearing a petition filed by former AIADMK MLA B. Sathyanarayanan seeking directions to the poll panel to conduct a complete and transparent re-verification of the 229 booths in Chennai’s T-Nagar constituency.
