The Supreme Court of India has issued notice to the Election Commission of India and Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar in connection with a Public Interest Litigation challenging alleged unilateral decision-making within the poll panel. The petitions raised objections over critical decisions concerning the Special Intensive Revision exercise and modifications to voter registration Form 6, alleging that these actions breached statutory mandates requiring unanimity or majority consensus among the three election commissioners under the Election Commission Act. A bench comprising Chief Justice Surya Kant, Justice Joymalya Bagchi, and Justice V. Mohana declined to grant an interim order suspending the Chief Election Commissioner based on media reports. The apex court noted that constitutional bodies must function in accordance with the law and affirmed that any decisions found to be improper or unlawful could be set aside. The court directed the Election Commission of India, the election commissioners, and the government to submit their responses within one week, along with relevant official records, file notings, and meeting minutes explaining the authorisation of the decisions.

CEC is as much a constitutional post like CJI. Court can make recomendation for action by parliament and/or H.E President if India only

SC also think about the adulterated elected MLAs and MPs role in parliament & legislative assembly.

Regardless of majority or unanimity, was the addition passed by the govt to make the change?

This is not a big PIL. Just focussing on unanimous nature of it is not enough . It is the easiest to counter. Anyone can say there were differences but don't disagree on final outcome . Focus needs to be on the impact it caused in voters

CEC can not change the format of Form 6.

The supreme court should have stopped the SIR before itself because ECI has deleted 13 crore voters in recent elections completed in Bihar, Tamilnadu, Bengal every state the people who voted before SIR . 13 crore is not small this is purely those who have not been voted in the past election have removed and won with minimum margins SC should act nove how the ECI can remove the voting writes of the peoples it's against constitution. If SC fails to stop the SIR process of not people will come to the streets and get it done.
