RAJKUMAR Lal Srivastava is at a loss as the name of one of the eight eligible voters in his family has been deleted from the voters' list. But what came as a rude shock for him is that the address of a Muslim family is the same as the house in which his family has been residing for long now.

"How it is possible? How can the address of a Hindu family and that of a Muslim community be the same? I have doubts that this could be a part of a larger conspiracy," Katihar-resident Srivastava questioned.

He said his family has unnecessarily been dragged into a controversy over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of Bihar electoral rolls. Srivastava is a resident of House Number 118 at Bazar Samiti in Katihar town. His polling station (280) is located at Bazar Samiti.
