The Supreme Court on Friday (April 24, 2026) told a group of over 65 West Bengal poll duty officers, excluded from the electoral roll on the ground of logical discrepancies in their personal details during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process, to pursue their appeals before the Appellate Tribunals.

A Bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant did not intervene on their petition seeking a direction to the Election Commission of India (ECI) and the West Bengal Chief Electoral Officer to permit them to vote in the Assembly polls during the pendency of their appeals.
