Claiming the revisions could deprive millions of their voting rights, the opposition coalition has approached the Supreme Court for intervention. The matter highlights alleged misconduct by the Election Commission, which has proceeded with the revisions without adequate transparency.

As legal proceedings continue, the political landscape in Bihar remains tense, with many citizens apprehensive about their voting rights. The Supreme Court is scheduled to hear the case on July 10, 2025, with hopes of addressing the contentious issue before upcoming elections.
