Indian States Advance Special Intensive Revision of Electoral Rolls with Focus on Accuracy
Election authorities across multiple Indian states are conducting the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls to ensure accurate and inclusive voter lists. Officials, including Chief Electoral Officers and Divisional Commissioners, have emphasized door-to-door verification by Booth Level Officers and timely collection of enumeration forms. While states like Meghalaya report over 98% distribution of forms, some urban districts lag in form digitization. Authorities have urged public cooperation, warned against negligence, and outlined timelines for draft publication, claims, objections, and final roll publication by October 2026.
