Form 6 row deepens after SC remark on EC changes

A dispute over Form 6 electoral modifications has intensified following Supreme Court's statement that it did not approve any changes to the form. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused ECI's CEC Gyanesh Kumar of illegally altering Form 6 unilaterally. The Election Commission counters that Form 6 itself was never amended, and the disputed provision relates to a separate SIR declaration. Bombay High Court is hearing a petition from a family of seven removed from the draft electoral roll for changing address. BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra dismissed Congress allegations, stating the Supreme Court did not make statements as opposition leaders claimed.
