Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav questioned the credibility of the Election Commission regarding the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Yadav alleged that voters supporting his party were systematically deleted from the rolls without corrective action during the SIR process.
