revision of voter list

(note - this was written on 8th july, 2 days before the date of hearing by the judges. of course they did not conform to this idea but grateful they did not grant a stay) 

revision of voter list

supreme court (which means two judges out of 35) will hear on the plea against bihar roll revision.

hearing as i would like it to be.

ks – milords, the ec is bent upon doing sir which will disfranchise voters from marginalised sections of population. it is ill timed and hasty action. i request an immediate halt to this exercise.it is an urgent matter.

J1 – that is why we are here to hear you out.

j2 – is the sir meant only for voters in marginalise section or all voters.

ks – it does not make a difference because we now that only marginalised section will be affected.

j1 – even if some voters , or as you say, a large number, will be deleted, how does it affect you.

ks – they are our voters and ec wants to get them out.

j2 – how do you know, they are your voters.

ks – we have done a survey and we are confident that that is the intention of ec.

j2 - maybe they are voters of other parties and you will be in an advantageous position.

j1 – ec says it wants to cancel out fake voters. in your survey, have you contacted these fake voters or the real voters.

ks – i repeat that it is hasty and ill-timed action. it is all pre planned.

j1 – when will you like the revision to take place.

ks – after we have won the elections.

j1 – with the help of fake voters which are going to be deleted.

j2 – but you are sure that if there is no revision, you will win the elections.

ks – what is important is that what is the intention of the ec and the government.

j1 – ec is in charge of conducting elections. why bring in the government.

ks – they are all aligned.

j2 –be careful. that is a defamatory statement. you are talking about a constitutional body.

ks – that is the general impression in the voters, not my perception.

j2 – but you would like to use it as an argument.

j1 – is there any other information about sir except this impression in the general public.

ks – i would like to give a detailed statement about why this is so and why this is important. i request for giving us time for that.

j1 – but you said the matter is urgent.

ks – it is, but all facts must be before your lordships. hence we are only requesting for a stay till further arguments are heard.

j1 – we have heard enough for today. it is clear that sir is meant for all voters and not what you feel are your voters. your arguments about ill intentions of ec are not convincing. the matter is urgent, as you say, and yet you seek time, effectively negativing the revision.

j2 – i think the case is liable to be dismissed because it is only based on conjectures and about accusations which are not convincing even prima facie.

j1 – i concur with what my learned brother has said, case dismissed
