- West Bengal: Are Voter Deletions in SIR Deciding Elections?

- Description
- Is Bengal’s voter roll revision just routine - or something more?
The Wire investigation showa how voter deletions during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in West Bengal are not uniform. From Muslim-dominated border areas to urban belts, patterns suggest targeted exclusions.
In constituencies like Samserganj, over 91,000 voters were deleted - with minority-heavy booths seeing far higher scrutiny.

- Description
- The world today runs on oil, and any disruption in its supply can bring multiple industries to a halt. From air travel to your kitchen gas, the ongoing crude oil shortage is impacting daily life in ways we often ignore. But here’s the real question: if oil is this critical to our survival, why haven’t we taken it seriously? Experts now warn that continued mismanagement could even threaten our food security due to a potential fertilizer crisis. Astonishingly, India imports 85–90% of its oil, with nearly half coming from the volatile Gulf region- an area the US refuses to let remain stable. While China and Japan built strategic oil reserves in response, India has no clear answer. We don’t even get official updates anymore on how many days of oil reserves we have left. The Strait of Hormuz remains blocked, two blockades are active, and while Iran has granted passage to Indian ships, America, our so-called best friend, is now creating hurdles. Meanwhile, Russia, under sanctions sin...

- The Environment And Climate in Assembly Elections 2026

- Description
- As India voted through record-breaking heat, one major issue stayed missing from most election campaigns: climate and the environment.
From heatwave deaths in West Bengal to coastal erosion and landslides in Kerala, from air pollution and unplanned urbanisation to deforestation in Assam — environmental crises are already shaping everyday life. Yet, most political parties offered few concrete solutions in their manifestos.
This video The Wire's Environment Reporter Aathira Perincherry breaks down:
• How climate change impacted Assembly Elections 2026
• What parties promised — and what they ignored
• Why “development” projects often come at an environmental cost
• The politics of heatwaves, flooding, forests, wetlands and pollution
• And whether India’s elections are prepared for a climate-changed future
Featuring examples from West Bengal, Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Assam.

- The disenfranchisement of lakhs of voters is no small matter and The Wire has covered the Bengal SIR and the people it has affected, consistently. Our coverage has revealed that the exercise has, in fact, brought to the forefront some of the more deep-seated issues that Bengal was already dealing with. Communalism, lack of employment, the vulnerability of migrants, unfulfilled political promises, rampant corruption and more. Our reports have focused on large-scale erasures, trends and demographic changes affected by the deletions.
But once in a while, something happens that affects a pause in the news cycle and forces us to take a longer look at the purpose of public-facing journalism. Read Madhu Sudan Chatterjee’s extraordinary report and its impact here.

Prof. Sen said he was particularly worried about India’s exports to the Gulf region which have presently been blocked by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. He said he was not confident that India could find alternate markets for what it sells...

- At a time when the political atmosphere in Bengal is sharply polarised, with leaders of the ruling Trinamool Congress and opposition Bharatiya Janata Party leaving no stone unturned to convince the voter that they belong to opposing ends of the political spectrum, an issue that affects ordinary residents of the state appears to unite both parties.
Rampant sand mining in Bankura’s rivers, especially the Damodar and Darakeswar, is devastating ecosystems, farmland and livelihoods. Villagers allege a powerful syndicate backed by leaders from both BJP and TMC, alongside complicit officials, enables widespread illegal extraction. Labourers face exploitation, earning meagre wages under coercion.

Yogendra Yadav joins transparency activists Anjali Bhardwaj and Amrita Johri to deconstruct the West Bengal Special Intensive Revision (SIR) controversy in this edition of Jaanne Bhi Do Yaaro on The Wire.
For the first time in India’s electoral history, a secret algorithm was deployed to flag 1.36 crore citizens who had to appear at hearings to prove their eligibility, leading to the mass exclusion of 27 lakh names from the voter list without a hearing.
Analysis by AltNews of 6 constituencies shows a disproportionate impact on Muslims. 93% of voters flagged for adjudication and deletion were Muslim even though they constituted 52% of the electorate. With the deletion numbers exceeding the winning margins of the last elections in 44 seats, we ask: Is the SIR going to impact the elect...

Now Yasmin is contesting as a CPI(M) candidate. Her daughter’s killers have not been brought to justice. “I cry every day. But my daughter gives me the strength,” Sabina says.

The Editor-in-Chief of The Economist, Zanny Minton Beddoes, says the Iran war is a “strategic disaster” for President Donald Trump and the USA. She said: “I think this is along the line of Suez for the Brits. A very big geo-strategic misstep where the US has, I think, unambiguously lost from this. And it’s in a weaker position in the Gulf and it’s in a weaker position internationally.”
Ms. Minton Beddoes said Trump should be thought of not as a conventional American President with a cabinet and advisors who speak their mind, debate and then come to agreed conclusions but as a King surrounded by courtiers who vie to tell him what he wants to hear.

- Description
- After the first phase of elections in West Bengal conducted under the shadow of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls following which the electorate in the state has shrunk by about 90 lakh, the state has seen a record high voter turnout of about 93%.
Home Minister Amit Shah has declared that the BJP will win 110 seats out of the 152 that went to the polls on Thursday.

The rupee is falling faster than any other major currency in the world, while both exports and manufacturing continue to decline. What started as a manufacturing crisis triggered by the post-war LPG shock has now turned into a full-blown labour crisis. For the past three weeks, factory workers in several North Indian cities have taken to the streets—unable to find decent work or earn enough to survive. These are the stories that rarely make it to prime time, hidden behind cold data and fancy jargon. Meanwhile, India has slipped from being the 4th largest economy to the 6th—so yes, go ahead and celebrate that with some jhal muri if you like. But the real question is: why is the Indian economy becoming so volatile? And more important...
