Calcutta High Court reserved its judgment on a PIL challenging the Election Commission of India decision ordering widespread transfers, replacements and deputations of officers in poll-bound West Bengal.
The Supreme Court strongly criticised applications questioning the integrity of judicial officers involved in West Bengal’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. CJI Surya Kant said the Court “will not tolerate” attempts to cast doubt on judicial officers handling the voter verification exercise.
