MAmata Banerjee in sublime margaret court unrecorded: westward Bengal Chief government minister Mamata Banerjee arrived at the Supreme Court on Wednesday for a hearing of her plea against the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in the state. Banerjee is a trained advocate who has long opposed the SIR drive in the state and wants the upcoming Assembly elections in the state to be conducted as per the voters list of 2025.Her likely appearance in the Supreme Court today would be an escalation of her ongoing confrontation with the Election Commission of India (ECI).Some key pointers to note:Mamata Banerjee's plea in SC: In her plea against the SIR revision exercise in West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee has sought the quashing of all SIR-related orders issued by the ECI on June 24, 2025, and October 27, 2025, along with all connected directives.SC bench to hear plea today: A bench comprising Chief Justice Surya Kant and Justices Joymalya Bagchi and Vipul M Pancholi is scheduled to hear a batch of petitions, including those filed by Banerjee, Mostari Banu and TMC MPs Derek O'Brien and Dola Sen.What SC said in last SIR hearing: The hearing which Mamata Banerjee will attend on Wednesday comes days after the Supreme Court issued directions to the ECI to make the SIR more transparent, accessible, and voter-friendly in West Bengal. “See the strain and stress going on for ordinary people. Over one crore people have been issued notices…we are going to pass some orders,” the bench observed on January 12.SIR schedule in Bengal: The SIR was rolled out in West Bengal on November 4, 2025 and the draft electoral roll was published on December 16.
