BJP: Mamata's 'Instinct To Mislead' on SIR Form, Submitted It Despite Denial

• Mamata Banerjee claimed she did not fill out her Special Intensive Revision (SIR) form, alleging it was an attempt to force her to prove citizenship.
• BJP's Amit Malviya countered, stating Banerjee had submitted her SIR form on the last day, accusing her of misleading the public.
• Malviya asserted that nearly 100% of West Bengal voters completed their SIR forms, which he claimed was why the Election Commission did not extend the deadline for the state.
• Banerjee accused the BJP of using the SIR process to "take away the rights" of women and "terrify" voters, and pressuring district magistrates to remove names from electoral rolls.
• The Election Commission extended SIR deadlines for several states, but West Bengal was not included.
