NEW DELHI: Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Friday demanded greater transparency and accountability in the ongoing Special Summary Revision (SIR) of voter lists in Uttar Pradesh, raising concerns over alleged irregularities and undue pressure on officials.
In a detailed post on X, Yadav outlined a series of direct demands to ensure the process is fair, impartial, and free from political influence.
“Direct demand on SIR: The data on what percentage of SIR has been done in UP should be published today. Remove the life-threatening pressure on BLO and assign additional authorized people to this work in accordance with the time period. Ensure that the ruling party's group and their associates are not involved in this work through the back door now and will never be in the future, " Yadav wrote in a post on X.
