What the coverage says

The Election Commission has addressed confusion regarding the Special Intensive Revision process, stating that voters whose names are absent from draft rolls may submit Form 6 for re-inclusion without facing penal consequences. NDTV noted that the clarification was issued amid broader criticism and hesitation over the form's initial declaration language, which implies a first-time application. However, The Hindu reported that petitioners have made an urgent mention in the Supreme Court, pointing out that the ECI is still insisting on Form 6 in Delhi despite the court previously ruling that forcing pre-existing voters to apply as new applicants was an "error."
