SIR In 12 States Was Unanimous, Sources Say; CEC And Both ECs Agreed

ABP News reported that the Standing Instruction Report (SIR) was unanimously endorsed in twelve Indian states, a development confirmed by multiple sources familiar with the matter. The report’s consensus was further validated by the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) and the two Election Commissioners, who collectively agreed on the outcome.

The unanimity spans a total of twelve states, though the specific states were not disclosed in the source. All three senior election officials – the CEC and the two ECs – expressed their agreement, indicating a coordinated stance at the highest level of the Election Commission of India.

The SIR, a procedural document used by the Election Commission to standardize certain electoral processes, aims to ensure consistent implementation across diverse jurisdictions. The unanimous endorsement suggests a streamlined approach that could affect state election machinery, local administrators, and ultimately, the voting public, by promoting uniformity in the execution of electoral guidelines.
