Special Report: Voter Roll Revision Sparks Political War, BLO Deaths Across India

This special report covers the nationwide political flashpoint over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter rolls. The programme focuses on West Bengal, where Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee is protesting the exercise, and also highlights the immense pressure on Booth Level Officers (BLOs) in states including Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Gujarat, and Rajasthan, leading to several alleged deaths by suicide. A BLO from Tamil Nadu stated, 'We have been working up to 1 o'clock in the offices...it's not possible to complete this Himalayan challenge'. The report details the crushing workloads, data entry failures, and protests by BLOs. It also includes accusations from West Bengal's Leader of Opposition, Suvendu Adhikari, who alleges that the TMC is allowing infiltration in the SIR process, and concerns raised by Mamata Banerjee to the Election Commission about outsourcing data work and using private buildings for polling stations.
