Election Commission Extends SIR Deadlines and Updates Voter Rolls in Andhra Pradesh, Meghalaya, and Goa
The Election Commission of India (ECI) has extended deadlines for the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Andhra Pradesh and Meghalaya due to local issues. In Goa, the SIR exercise led to the removal of over 1.25 lakh voters, but around 35,000 have been added back after the ECI removed an additional declaration from the voter enrolment Form 6. Of 97 disputed voter cases in Goa, 88 have been resolved through Form 6 submissions, with authorities continuing to verify the remaining cases.
