The committee will scrutinize the Election Commission of India’s (ECI) rollout of Special Intensive Revisions. This is not a routine roll update; it is a comprehensive “clean-up” of the electoral register. Key debate points will include:
- Data Integrity: The removal of over 5 crore names (as seen in Phase II) due to migration, death, or duplication.

- Political Accountability: How different parties view these revisions as either a “democratic necessity” or a “tool for disenfranchisement.”
