Punjab Publishes Final Electoral Rolls After Special Intensive Revision
Punjab's final electoral rolls for 117 Assembly constituencies were published after the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise, listing 2.01 crore eligible voters. The revision removed over 13.6 lakh names due to deaths, relocations, duplicates, and absences, while adding nearly 8 lakh new voters. The final count reflects a 6.3% decrease from the pre-SIR total but a 3.6% increase from the draft roll. Voters can still register or update details using Form 6. District-level data shows varied changes in electorates across Punjab.
