Kolkata: A petition has been filed on Friday in the Calcutta High Court, seeking a court-monitored Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in West Bengal. The division bench of the Calcutta High Court, comprising Justice Sujoy Paul and Justice Smita Das De, admitted the petition.
The petitioner has also sought the court's intervention to extend the time period for conducting the revision exercise. The petitioner has pleaded for the Calcutta HC's direction to the Election Commission of India to give a detailed explanation on why the SIR exercise is necessary.
Meanwhile, the West Bengal-CEO's office launched a new website on Friday with six servers and 2002 SIR data uploaded on it. After the SIR announcement, the website reported one crore hits and tremendous pressure on the servers. "However, the servers are now equipped and will be able to handle pressure," a top official at the WB-CEO's office said.
