The Congress on Thursday said the Supreme Court’s suggestion that the Election Commission (EC) should allow Aadhaar cards, voter-ID cards and ration cards in the Special Intensive Revision of the electoral rolls in Bihar has come as a “relief for democracy” and is a “significant advance” in the case.
Congress general secretary, organisation, K C Venugopal pointed out that the apex court will hear the case again later this month, while expressing hope that the EC will go with the court’s suggestion.
“Basically, it is a relief for democracy. The case is again fixed for the 28th of this month,” Venugopal told reporters, when asked about the Supreme Court’s suggestion. PTI
