The Bombay High Court orders the Election Commission of India to restore the names of six voters in Goa whose entries are said to have been deleted during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR). Petitioners had sought corrections related to their address, and they later faced instructions to register again as new voters instead.
All outlets report that the court’s direction is tied to voters’ Form-based requests for changes of address and that poll authorities must take steps to get the affected voters back onto the electoral rolls. Times of India adds procedural context, saying the Election Commission’s defence points to system limitations and issues with unprocessed forms.
Coverage focuses on the same core legal outcome—restoration of the six names—while differing in how much detail is included on what forms were used and whether a verification process and specific timeline were mentioned.
