But in the view of the law, the answer is no. The main Form 6 is completely legal. Form 6 is still a legal and legal application under the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960. Through this, any eligible Indian citizen applies to add his name in the voter list. The dispute is not about the entire form, but about the additional declaration attached to it during the SIR. Now the CJI talks about Justice Surya Kant's comment about the validity of the Supreme Court being invalid or the court's seal! During the hearing on 5 October 2026, the bench headed by the Chief Justice of India, Justice Surya Kant, had informed that the Supreme Court has not approved any modified form of Form 6. The court said that it also wants to see by calling the record that although the change in this form was made by the court, under what circumstances, the chief election commissioner could not suspend any interim order.
