Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh, on Monday, submitted a Suspension of Business notice in the House ahead of the first day of the Winter Session, demanding a discussion on the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls in 12 States and Union Territories. Parliament Winter Session: AAP MP Sanjay Singh seeks discussion on SIR in Upper House Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh, on Monday, submitted a Suspension of Business notice in the House, demanding a discussion on the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls in 12 States and Union Territories.Along with the SIR exercise, he requested a discussion on the related matters, including the alleged arbitrary deletion of names from the voter lists and the demise of several Booth Level Officers in the States, with the ongoing SIR exercise.In his notice to the Rajya Sabha Secretary-General, Sanjay Singh alleged that the SIR exercise has “triggered a nationwide crisis of electoral integrity… and has instead resulted in mass arbitrary deletions, severe procedural violations, and widespread human distress, posing a serious threat to free and fair elections.””SIR has caused unprecedented and unjustified removal of voter names, most notably in Bihar, where 65 lakh voters were deleted without proper verification. In many assembly constituencies, the number of deletions exceeded previous victory margins, raising concerns about targeted disenfranchisement of migrants, women, minorities, and vulnerable groups. The absence of meaningful appeal mechanisms and the opaque deletion process indicate a complete breakdown of due process and transparency,” he added.Sanjay Singh alleged that BLOs are facing a “humanitarian crisis” amid pressure during the SIR.”At the same time, the SIR has created unbearable pressure on Booth Level Officers (BLOs), leading to a humanitarian crisis. Within just 19 days (till late November 2025), at least 16 BLOs have died, including suicides, reportedly due to inhuman workloads, mental stress, sleepless nights, unsafe field conditions, and punitive performance rankings. Frequent app failures, unrealistic targets, and threats of suspension have pushed frontline staff into dangerous working environments. The timelines enforced by the Election Commission are arbitrary and unrealistic,” he wrote.”This rushed, and uncorrected rollout dramatically increases the danger of large-scale disenfranchisement across the country and threatens the credibility of the electoral process. This pan-India exercise threatens the right to vote under Article 326, equality before law (Article 14), and free/fair elections (Article 21), demanding immediate parliamentary intervention to halt SIR, restore rolls, and hold ECI accountable. Sir, I request that under Rule 267 all business of the House be suspended and this extremely important national issue be discussed immediately,” the notice read.The second phase of the SIR exercise covers Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Chhattisgarh, Goa, Gujarat, Kerala, Lakshadweep, Madhya Pradesh, Puducherry, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal, following the successful completion of the first phase in Bihar. The final voter list will be published on February 14, 2026.Meanwhile, the 6th Session of the 18th Lok Sabha and the 269th Session of the Rajya Sabha commenced on Monday, marking the beginning of the Winter Session of Parliament.The session will conclude on December 19.End of ArticleFollow Us On Social MediaVideosRamaphosa Praises PM Modi’s Endorsement of South Africa Hosting G20 Summit, Counters Trump’s Claims‘Is There Any Law?’ Renuka Chaudhary Sparks Row After Bringing Stray Dog to ParliamentBSF IG Warns Of Looming Threat As 120 Terrorists Wait In PoK Despite Dip In Infiltration AttemptsPakistan Rages At UN After Criticism Of Munir’s Immunity Amendment Amid Fears Of Deeper MilitarismSheikh Hasina, UK MP Tulip Siddiq Convicted in Corruption Case, Raising Concerns Over Fair TrialsUP BLO Deaths Trigger Outrage As Families Blame Extreme SIR Stress While Officials Deny Any PressureThailand Pushes For India’s RCEP Entry, Urges Deeper Trade Ties, Joint Action Against CybercrimeKiren Rijiju, JP Nadda Slam Kharge Over Rajya Sabha Remarks On Jagdeep Dhankhar’s ExitIndian Youth Killed In UK Stabbing; Family Demands Justice After All Six Suspects Are Granted Bail’Survived Drowning, Escaped A Bomb Blast, Gave Up Non-Veg’: PM Modi On VP Radhakrishnan’s Early Life123PhotostoriesSamantha Ruth Prabhu and Raj Nidimoru to Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan: Actors who married directorsHow Samantha balances fitness with autoimmune myositis: A lesson in resilienceWords that heal: 7 motivational quotes to boost your mental health8 small fish that are fun and easy to care forLearning with clarity: 5 Lord Buddha quotes students can live byYour Strength and Weakness According To Your Date of BirthAstro-numerology December 2025; Sanjay B Jumaani’s predictions for each number (1-9)7 hill stations near Kerala for that much-needed winter break in DecemberFrom filigree diamond engagement ring to minimalist mangalsutra glam: Newlywed Samantha Ruth Prabhu’s wedding jewellery is all things luxe6 hacks to keep almirahs and kitchen drawers damp and moisture free to prevent deemak (termites)123Hot PicksParliament Winter SessionCyclone DitwahWorld NewsGold rate todaySilver rate todayPublic Holidays NovemberBank Holidays NovemberTop TrendingAdin RossSunil GavaskarED SheeranDevajit SaikiaVirat Kohli RecordGisele BndchenKL RahulParliament SessionSmriti MandhanaAnthony Davis
