Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) is meant to ensure that “infiltrators are kept out of the electoral process.” Addressing a rally in Assam’s Guwahati, Modi accused the Congress of protecting infiltrators and ignoring the Northeast for decades. “The Centre is taking strict steps to stop infiltration,” he said. Modi added that past Congress governments harmed Assam’s security and unity. He claimed violence has reduced in the last 10–11 years and affected districts are now developing. (PC: File/PMO)
