SC to Hear Plea Against Deletion of Voters from West Bengal Electoral Rolls

• Supreme Court agrees to consider a fresh plea against the deletion of electors from West Bengal's electoral rolls during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR).
• Senior advocate Maneka Guruswamy highlighted that these are electors who previously voted, but their documents were not accepted.
• The plea comes after the SC allowed deployment of judges from West Bengal, Jharkhand, and Odisha to handle 80 lakh claims and objections.
• "Logical discrepancies" like parent name mismatch or significant age differences were cited for deletions.
• The SC had previously directed the WB DGP to file an affidavit regarding alleged burning of EC notices.
