Delhi's Special Intensive Revision Ends with One-Third Voters Marked Uncollectible
The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of Delhi's electoral rolls concluded with about 67% of enumeration forms digitised, leaving nearly one-third—around 47.6 lakh voters—marked as 'uncollectible' due to absence, relocation, duplication, or death. These voters risk exclusion from the draft roll to be published on August 24 but can file claims during the objections period before the final roll release on October 27. Delhi Congress raised concerns over missing forms and alleged vote suppression in unauthorized areas, while officials cited high migrant populations and urban mobility as factors for deletions.
