SC says legality of EC's 'logical discrepancy' checks in SIR still open

The Supreme Court clarified it has not given a final ruling on the Election Commission's use of the 'logical discrepancy' category to flag voters during the Special Intensive Revision. A bench led by CJI Surya Kant said allowing it in West Bengal was only an interim step, and the Bihar ruling did not settle every question. The hearing concerned notices in Delhi.
