Election Commission Offers Fresh Chance for Excluded Voters in Seven States and Delhi
The Election Commission of India (ECI) has provided a fresh opportunity for voters excluded from draft electoral rolls during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Delhi and six states—Maharashtra, Haryana, Andhra Pradesh, Jharkhand, Telangana, and Nagaland. Electors marked as Absent, Shifted, Dead, or Duplicate (ASDD) who did not submit enumeration forms can now resubmit them to be included in the final rolls. Booth-wise lists of excluded voters will be displayed publicly, and officials will conduct outreach to ensure eligible voters are not disenfranchised while preventing duplicate entries. The move follows Supreme Court suggestions and aims to address concerns over voter deletions amid political debate.
