The High Court of Bombay at Goa on Monday reserved its order on a petition filed by St Cruz resident Paresh Salgaonkar and his family members challenging the exclusion of their names from the electoral rolls following the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise.
The order was reserved after a marathon hearing during which the Election Commission of India (ECI) presented a detailed account of the procedure followed for conducting SIR of electoral rolls across states and Union Territories.
At the previous hearing, the High Court was informed that the Senior Supreme Court advocate Ashutosh Kumbhakoni would explain the procedure adopted during the Special Intensive Revision exercise and outline how the revision was being conducted across India.
