• No stay on revision of rolls
THE SUPREME COURT on Monday refused to stop the Election Commission (EC) from publishing the draft electoral roll for Bihar, drawn up following the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), adding that the petitioners' concerns had been taken care of by its July 10 order asking it to also consider Aadhaar and Electoral Photo Identity Cards (EPIC) for the exercise.
A Bench of Justices Surya Kant and Joymala Bagchi said the EC can continue to consider Aadhaar and voter cards for the enumeration, and told the petitioners that the Court can always step in and strike it down if there is any illegality.
In its July 10 order, the apex court had asked the EC to consider Aadhaar, voter ID and ration cards for the purpose of updating the rolls, but left it to the discretion of the poll body whether to accept or reject them.
