Maharashtra Publishes Draft Electoral Roll Excluding 2.06 Crore Names After SIR
Maharashtra has published the draft electoral roll following a Special Intensive Revision (SIR), including 7.71 crore voters, about 78.86% of the previous electorate. Approximately 2.06 crore names were excluded due to uncollectable enumeration forms, citing reasons such as voters being untraceable, deceased, shifted, or duplicate entries. Voters can check their inclusion online or via local offices and file claims or objections until September 30 to correct or add their names before the final roll is finalized.
