Has SIR altered West Bengal’s electoral map ahead of assembly elections?

Document verification is underway in West Bengal under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Districts or assembly constituencies with more Muslim voters have seen higher deletions during the adjudication process, potentially benefiting the Bharatiya Janata Party. However, the absolute number of voters may not have fallen, as the deleted individuals were likely those who died, migrated or were registered in multiple places.
