The apex court was hearing pleas alleging arbitrariness and procedural irregularities in the ongoing special intensive revision (SIR) exercise in Tamil Nadu, including those related to the “logical discrepancies” category. With a view to enabling the persons who are as of now included in the category of logical discrepancies, the bench issued certain directions. People likely to be affected are permitted to submit their documents or objections through their authorized representative, it said. The bench said documents and objections may be permitted to be submitted at the Panchayat Bhawans or ‘Taluka’ offices. The bench passed similar directions on January 19 on the pleas pertaining to SIR in West Bengal.
