The political battle over Form 6 has intensified, with Rahul Gandhi accusing Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar of illegally and unilaterally changing the voter registration form, while the BJP has rejected the allegations and accused the Opposition of spreading misleading claims. The controversy comes after the Supreme Court questioned the alleged modifications and said it wanted to examine who authorised the changes. The Election Commission, meanwhile, has called Rahul Gandhi’s claims misleading and maintained that the Bihar SIR order was approved unanimously, while the BJP has argued that the Supreme Court did not declare Form 6 illegal. With the Opposition linking the Form 6 controversy to the wider SIR debate, and the BJP firmly defending the Election Commission, the issue has become a major political flashpoint ahead of the next round of state elections.
