PoliticsTelangana HC directs ECI to secure instructions on SIR notice procedures
The Telangana High Court on October 5, 2026, directed the Election Commission of India’s counsel to obtain instructions regarding a writ petition challenging the issuance of notices to voters under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of 2002. Petitioners S.Q. Masood and Syed Wahid Uddin argued that ECI used unapproved AI-based methods to identify discrepancies in voter names, leading to wrongful notices about mismatched father’s names in electoral rolls.
