Leaders of several Opposition parties, including Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, wrote to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, urging him to schedule a special discussion on the ongoing SIR in Bihar without any further delay. In their letter to Birla, the MPs expressed deep concern over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise in Bihar, especially a few months before the state assembly elections.
Earlier in the day, Manickam Tagore submitted the adjournment motion and sought an emergency discussion on SIR, describing it as "mass disenfranchisement of 65 lakh voters in Bihar - deliberate assault on the constitution and democracy by the Modi government using the Election Commission."
Meanwhile, the MPs from the opposition INDIA bloc protested in front of Makkar Dawar in Parliament on Friday demanding a discussion. The INDIA bloc parties, in a unanimous decision at their meeting on Thursday, resolved to intensify their protests against the ongoing SIR both inside and outside Parliament. The INDIA bloc's protest comes as the Election Commission is scheduled to publish the draft electoral rolls of Bihar on Friday.
