The Supreme Court has refused to pause the SIR exercise being carried out in Bihar at the moment but will hear the multiple petitions against the voter list overhaul on Thursday.

The Election Commission's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter list in poll-bound Bihar has met with stern criticism from the opposition. The court accepted the petitioners' request for an urgent hearing in the matter, but refused to pause the exercise for now.

Multiple petitions have been filed in the Supreme Court, challenging the poll body's revision of voter lists months ahead of the Assembly polls. The petitioners are Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MP Manoj Jha, poll watchdog Association for Democratic Reforms, rights body People's Union for Civil Liberties, activist Yogendra Yadav, Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and former MLA Mujahid Alam.

According to the petition’s advocates, the revision exercise would lead to the removal of lakhs of names from voter lists and women and the underprivileged will be worst-hit.
The Special Intensive Revision was launched on June 24, and it aims to revise the list of eligible voters in Bihar, in the context of the upcoming Bihar elections in November, by adding the names of eligible voters to the list and weeding out ineligible voters. The last such revision was carried out in 2003 and took almost 2 years to complete.
