On 28 February 2026, when the revised electoral roll for West Bengal was published, thousands of voters in Siliguri, Darjeeling, and Kalimpong discovered that their names were either missing from the voter list or placed under the “under adjudication” category. Many of these voters had been voting in previous elections, which quickly turned the issue into a major public and political debate in North Bengal.
This controversy is linked to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process conducted by the Election Commission to update electoral rolls by removing duplicate entries, updating migration records, and deleting names of deceased voters. However, after the revision, reports suggested that over 60 lakh voter cases across West Bengal were placed under adjudication, raising concerns about verification processes, transparency, and voter rights.
In this video, Pankaj Shastri explains:
• What the SIR process actually is
• Why thousands of voters in North Bengal were affected
• Protests and political reactions in Siliguri, Darjeeling, and Mirik
• The debate around voter verification and administrative challenges
• Why the issue has become a major discussion ahead of elections
As authorities continue the verification process, many voters are asking a simple but important question:
If we have been voting for years, how did our names suddenly become doubtful?
Watch the full video to understand the facts, the controversy, and the larger debate around electoral transparency.
