SIR showdown: Mamata to move SC against ‘inhumane treatment’ of people

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced plans to approach the Supreme Court, citing “inhumane” conduct during the special intensive revision of electoral rolls. She alleged fear, harassment, and administrative arbitrariness led to deaths and hospitalizations, with names being arbitrarily struck off. Banerjee criticized the process as “unplanned, arbitrary and adhoc,” urging its halt to prevent voter disenfranchisement.
