The Election Commission excluded Aadhaar cards from the permissible identity documents for the voter list revision, prompting a Supreme Court directive to accept them.
"The Aadhaar card was not among the 11 documents that the poll panel had said could be submitted as proof of citizenship. Several petitioners had objected to the exclusion of Aadhaar" Scroll, 2025-09-30
The Election Commission did not disclose how many foreign illegal immigrants were found during the special intensive revision, despite citing their inclusion as a key reason for the exercise.
"the poll body’s statement on Tuesday made no mention of how many such foreign illegal immigrants were found." The Wire, 2025-09-30
What we checked
What the Reel doesn't tell you
- The Supreme Court had to order the Election Commission to accept Aadhaar cards as valid identity proof for the revision after the poll panel excluded them.
- The ECI cited the inclusion of 'foreign illegal immigrants' as a key reason for the revision but did not disclose how many were actually found.
What each side says
How it tries to persuade you
- Name calling: "cockroach ಜನತಾ party". Uses derogatory slang to label a political group, attempting to bias the viewer against them before presenting the facts.
Does this look wrong?
