July 07, 2025

Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MP Manoj Jha has approached the Supreme Court alleging that the decision of Election Commission of India (ECI) to undertake a special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Bihar is a tool of “institutionalised disenfranchisement” that will disproportionately target Muslim, Dalit and poor migrant communities ina state where elections are to be held later this year.

RJD, TMC MPs move SC against revision of electoral rolls in Bihar

The challenge forms the latest in the line of several petitions filed in the top court challenging the ECT's June 24 order. After non government organisation Association for Democratic Association (ADR) and political activist Yogendra Yadav filed petitions on Saturday, pleas have also been filed by Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and NGO Peoples Union for Civil Liberties, besides Jha.

RJD, the second largest party in Bihar and the main Opposition party in the state, has opposed the SIR along with other Opposition parties.
