RJD leader Mrityunjay Tiwari on Monday said that his party had no objection to the Election Commission of India’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls but urged the poll body to ensure that the exercise is conducted fairly and without bias.
“There is no objection to the SIR. However, it is not right to steal votes through SIR or to deprive any citizen of the country of their right to vote. During the Bihar SIR, many irregularities were observed, and proof of them was provided. EC should conduct the electoral process without being biased. If the Election Commission is seen working in favour of the government, the opposition will counter it,” Tiwari said.
The Election Commission has scheduled a press conference for 4.15 pm today to share details of the nationwide SIR. Earlie
