Supreme Court questions Election Commission on use of Form 6, ‘logical discrepancy’ notices to voters amid SIR
By Utkarsh Anand9 min read at Hindustan Times
In brief
The Supreme Court of India questioned the Election Commission of India (ECI) on its use of 'logical discrepancy' notices and Form 6 during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Delhi.
The court suggested that voters who shifted residence be allowed to use Form 8 instead, and urged the ECI to proactively reach out to voters rather than placing the burden on them to approach officials.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday asked the Election Commission of India (ECI) not to require nearly 4.3 million Delhi residents – whose names were removed from the electoral rolls after they could not be found at their last known addresses – to reapply as new voters through Form 6 under the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR), provided they were on the 2026 rolls.
Instead, it suggested that such voters be permitted to restore their names through Form 8, which is intended for address-related changes, or through the enumeration process.
