Election Commission Extends Special Intensive Revision Deadlines in Andhra Pradesh and Meghalaya
The Election Commission of India (ECI) has extended the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) schedule for electoral rolls in Andhra Pradesh and Meghalaya. The claims and objections period in Andhra Pradesh will continue until October 10, with the final voter list published on October 16. Meghalaya's final publication is set for October 26. The decision follows a review meeting of the full commission, which also addressed procedural changes such as removing the requirement for in-person hearings over discrepancies and withdrawing additional declarations from online voter forms in non-SIR states. The extensions aim to ensure accuracy and completeness in the electoral rolls amid ongoing scrutiny of the SIR process.
