It is not EC's job to issue citizenship cert: Lavasa on Bihar poll roll revision
The New Indian Express Kochi
|July 06, 2025
AS Bihar's Special Intensive Revision (SIR) sparks fear of possible exclusion of voters, particularly as it aligns with the 2003 Citizenship Act, former Election Commissioner (EC) Ashok Lavasa on Saturday said that it is not the responsibility of Election Commission of India (ECI) to issue citizenship certificates.
In a June 24 directive, the ECI cited Article 326 of the Constitution, stating that "a person is required to be an Indian citizen, for his/her name to be registered in the roll. The commission has a constitutional obligation to ensure that only persons who are citizens are included".
