Bhushan: Instead of cleaning electoral roll, SIR has compounded the problem. Total lack of transparency. When your lordships forced them to give list of 65 lakh names, only then they gave...they have not given list of 3.66 lakh voters deleted due to objections...they have not given speaking orders
J Bagchi: We directed that names would be put up in boards across districts...
Bhushan: Not done
Hearing begins
Bhushan: After the final roll has come out, we have been able to do some analysis...we have accessed the 2003 guidelines of EC for SIR...and another 2016 guidelines where they said about how to remove bogus voters, etc...we have handed over written submissions just now. Before we go through that, I want your lordships to give 10 mins time to Mr Yogendra Yadav so he can give factual backdrop of what SIR has led to...disproportionate exclusion of women, Muslims, so on
J Kant: No difficulty, but how do you want to proceed? On legality of SIR or...?
