Two of three Election Commissioners say they were bypassed 14+ times on the SIR. Over 13 crore names deleted.
PUCL demands: impeach CEC Gyanesh Kumar, scrap the SIR, restore every deleted name.

Umar Khalid is the right answer!
Just wanted to say I’m really proud of the people in #Bengaluru who showed up in solidarity, coming together to read from the book “Umar Khalid & His World.” These are the books he recommends we read!
Grateful to @anarrain, @Ram_Guha, Prof. Janaki Nair & @prakashraaj for their enriching reflections on the book and the times we live in.
Kudos to @BanOrAnir, @banojyotsna, and Shuddhabrata Sengupta for the tremendous effort in bringing this anthology to life!
Appreciate @bicblr and @BlrCityPolice for standing by and ensuring that a peaceful reading and discussion of the book could take place, despite opposition.

K. Balagopal (1952-2009) was a mathematician, civil rights activist and one of post-independent India’s most original thinkers. His work has had a great influence on me & I can't thank @anarrain enough for introducing me to Balagopal.
