A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Joymalya Bagchi heard lawyers for political parties and Association for Democratic Rights (ADR) argue that the process was impractical, rushed and unconstitutional. The top court will hear the case on November 26 and has ordered the ECI to respond.
The hearing saw sharp exchanges over the voter revision’s timing, the ECI’s authority and the right to vote itself.
