印度选举委员会在州选举之前正在修订比哈尔州的选民名单,要求公民在7月25日之前证明其公民身份。 The Election Commission of India (ECI) is revising voter rolls in Bihar ahead of state elections, requiring citizens to prove their citizenship by July 25. 这一举动遭到包括国会在内的反对党的批评,企图剥夺选民的权利,特别是剥夺少数民族和穷人的权利,引发了抗议。 The move, criticized by opposition parties, including Congress, as an attempt to disenfranchise voters, especially minorities and the poor, has sparked protests. ECI声称,特别密集修订(SIR)是为了确保只有合格的公民才能投票,而最高法院将审查质疑SIR合法性的申诉。 The ECI claims the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) is to ensure only eligible citizens vote, while the Supreme Court will review petitions challenging the SIR's legality.
