'Will send list of deleted voters to competent authority': EC welcomes SC verdict

NEW DELHI: The Election Commission shall, as directed by the Supreme Court, forward the list of electors deleted as part of the special intensive revision (SIR) across 13 states - primarily those classified as 'others', separate from the absent, shifted, dead, duplicate (ASDD) electors and, thus, of 'suspect' citizenship as well as the ones excluded from the roll based on adjudication during which they could not explain logical discrepancies in their mapping with the roll from last SIR - to the competent authority under the Citizenship Act 1955, for examining their citizenship.
