On News@7 this February 9, Taniya Dutta brings to you the evening’s most crucial headlines.

The Supreme Court on Monday cautioned the West Bengal government against obstructing the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls, noting millions of voter discrepancies and extending the February 14 deadline by a week. The court flagged concerns over inexperienced Electoral Registration Officers and field observers handling large-scale deletions.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Civil Aviation began inspecting 400 uncontrolled airstrips across India to improve safety following the Baramati crash that killed Deputy CM Ajit Pawar.

Separately, the SC directed the Delhi High Court to expedite former BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar’s appeal in the custodial death case.
