What's behind this
Six members of a family in the Santa Cruz constituency of north Goa, including resident Paresh Salgaonkar, found their names missing from the electoral rolls after filing Form‑8 applications for address changes during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise. They approached the Bombay High Court, which quashed the decisions of the North Goa District Election Officer and the Goa Chief Electoral Officer that had rejected their applications. The court directed the Election Commission to verify their new addresses and restore their names to the rolls within ten days.
