Q2According to the Election Commission release of 6 May 2026, when was ECINET officially launched?
Explanation
The release states that ECINET was officially launched in January 2026. November 2025 refers to the beta version used during Bihar elections, while April and May 2026 relate to polling and counting events.
Q3With reference to the Supreme Court judgment of 26 May 2026 on the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, consider the following statements: 1. The Court held that the Election Commission has NO authority to examine citizenship during electoral roll revision. 2. The Court held that the SIR exercise violates the Representation of the People Act, 1950. 3. The Court held that any deletion from the electoral rolls must be preceded by a show-cause notice. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Explanation
Only statement 3 is correct. The Supreme Court on 26 May 2026 held: (1) ECI IS empowered to examine citizenship for the limited purpose of inclusion/exclusion from electoral rolls (so statement 1 is wrong); (2) The SIR does NOT violate the Representation of the People Act, 1950 - it was held compliant (so statement 2 is wrong); (3) The Court emphasised procedural safeguards including mandatory show-cause notices before any deletion (statement 3 is correct).
