"The three Election Commissioners will decide when the exercise of SIR will be carried out in West Bengal or other states," he said while addressing a press conference in the national capital.

He further clarified the legal provisions available to citizens who wish to object to the inclusion of a voter's name; the CEC said such objections can be made before the electoral registration officer by taking an oath.
