ECI updates numbers for party volunteers in Bihar helping it complete the special intensive revision exercise. BJP-JDU lead the pack. Everyone besides the BJP scrambled increase their ranks during the first phase of the revision process.
Election Commission @ECISVEEP now says it's relying on political party workers and volunteers for the SIR in Bihar, not just deaignated govt officials. Guess who has the most booth level workers in Bihar - BJP + JDU. Read more:

24/ Yet ECI claims all is well. In fact, ECI asked political parties to help on ground with this revision process. But here is ECI's own record of party agents, cited in their reply to the SC. The Nitish-BJP alliance leads the pack. Though JD too has indicated misgivings

22/ In another report @santoshchitra tracked several migrants hurriedly returning to Bihar to submit their form. In their reply to SC ECI indicated the online option of form submission would prevent this chaos, the contrary holds true on ground.

18/ ECI failed to mention the number of these forms which have been returned without documentation.ECI changed rules midway to ask people to hastily submit the forms even if they don't have the necessary documents. That will be dealt with during the verification period.
