In May 2026, the Supreme Court observed that the Election Commission of India's power to conduct a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls is derived from which of the following Articles of the Constitution?
Article 324
In May 2026, the Supreme Court observed that the Election Commission of India's power to conduct a Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls flows from Article 324 of the Constitution, which vests in the Commission the superintendence, direction and control of the preparation of the electoral rolls and the conduct of all elections.
Article 325 bars discrimination in inclusion in the rolls, Article 326 provides the basis of adult suffrage, and Article 327 empowers Parliament to make laws with respect to elections — none of these directly grants the Commission its plenary supervisory power over the roll-revision process.
Hence, the answer is Article 324.
