The Supreme Court on August 22, 2025, permitted individuals whose names were omitted from Bihar’s draft electoral rolls to submit online claims using either their Aadhaar card or any one of 11 documents recognized by the Election Commission of India . Justices Surya Kant and Joymalya Bagchi urged Bihar’s 12 recognized political parties to mobilize Booth Level Agents (BLAs) to assist affected voters, as only two objections had been filed so far by over 160,800 BLAs . The court set a submission deadline of September 1, 2025, and scheduled its next hearing for September 8 to review compliance. (The Indian EXPRESS)
