About 49 Lakh Delhi Electors Likely Absent, Shifted, Dead, or Duplicate in SIR
Delhi's ongoing Summary Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls indicates that about 49 lakh electors, nearly 34% of the total 1.45 crore voters, may be categorized as absent, shifted, dead, or duplicate (ASDD). Approximately 66% of enumeration forms have been digitized, with the remaining forms likely contributing to the ASDD count. District-wise digitization varies, with Outer North recording the highest and South East the lowest. Final ASDD figures are expected after the August 17 deadline.
