Mohammed Shami Completes Voter-Roll Verification in Kolkata SIR Hearing

The routine check followed discrepancies in his enumeration form, prompting a brief identity review by election officials.

Overview

  • The India pacer appeared at a Bikramgarh school in south Kolkata on Tuesday for his scheduled Special Intensive Revision hearing.
  • Officials said he presented his passport during the process, which lasted about 15 minutes.
  • Shami told reporters he faced no problems and urged voters to correct their details to ensure their names are properly listed.
  • Election notices were issued to Shami and his brother, Mohammed Kaif, after complications in their forms linked to progeny mapping and self-mapping.
  • The statewide SIR exercise continues in West Bengal, as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has earlier questioned procedures and transparency in a letter to the Election Commission.
