The Election Commission of India (ECI) clarified in the Bombay High Court that the absence of a voter's name from the draft Special Intensive Revision (SIR) roll does not automatically mean it has been deleted. The ECI explained that an SIR is a comprehensive, 'de novo' exercise where the electoral roll is prepared afresh, unlike a Special Summary Revision (SSR) which only updates an existing roll. In a separate case, the ECI assured the Telangana High Court that it would pass reasoned orders in cases where eligible voters were excluded from the final roll, subject to their appearance for hearings and submission of relevant documents.
