New Delhi: Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanash Kumar on Monday carried forward the fear of the opposition about “disintegration” due to the ongoing special intensive amendment (SIR) of Bihar’s election role, saying that the purpose of the practice is to ensure that no eligible voter is left, while any kind of uneven voter is kept free.This is in line with the duty done by Article 326 of the Constitution on the Election Commission, which requires an Indian citizen over the age of 18 and an ordinary resident in that constituency, until disqualified. Kumar said that TOI EC is deploying more than 1 lakh volunteers to assist the elderly, sick, disabled persons (PWD) and other marginalized groups.In a statement on Monday, EC reiterated that more than 4.9 crore voters involved in Bihar’s election role since 2003 – when such intensive amendment was held – no need to submit any documents other than their filled enumeration form. The role of 2003 will be considered as a possible evidence of eligibility, including an estimate of Indian citizenship until an input is obtained.They only need to verify the details from the role of 2003 – now uploaded on the EC website and hard copies are being provided to booth level officials (BLOS) – and filled with filled – returned to Blo.Even children of these 4.9 crore voters will have to submit their citizenship proof from the list of only 11 specified documents, not any documents related to the birth of their parents. An EC official said, “The reason for this is that any child born to parents as an election in the 2003 Bihar role is an Indian citizen from birth.” “Thus, about 60% of Bihar’s (present) 7.9 crore voters, no documents will be submitted., Saying that the amendment of the electoral roll is mandatory before the Parliamentary/Assembly Elections or Bipol, the EC said that it has been conducting the annual summary amendment for 75 years. Nine intensive amendments were made between 1952 and 2004, with an average difference of six years, but the latest was pending for 22 years.The official said, “Sir is required because the electoral roll is dynamic and changes due to deaths, shifting people due to transfer/ reasons like migration due to education/ education/ marriage, and in addition to new voters who have become 18 years old,” the official said.According to the 2011 census, there were 454 million migrants in India, above 315 million in 2001. Even India Report, according to migration in 2021, was approximately 29%of the percentage of migrants in the population, which is higher than the margin of victory in many constitutions.The official said, “Sir will introduce full transparency in the electoral rolls through the active participation of booth level agents appointed by political parties,” and said, and said, and said, and said that about 1.5 lakh Blas, including more than 47,000, which are deployed by RJD alone, will monitor each step of the head.
