SIR Deadline Extended In Delhi, Mumbai: The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Delhi has been extended for the second time. The date for SIR door-to-door verification by the Booth Level Officers (BLOs) is likely to conclude by August 17. The final electoral rolls will be released on October 27.
This is the second time when the Election Commission of India (ECI) has extended the timeline for the SIR electoral rolls in Delhi. The ECI had extended the date for publishing the draft electoral rolls, which will now be released on August 24 instead of August 17.
Window To File Objections
Those who want to raise objections or make any rectifications can file their claims and objections from August 24 to September 23, as per the revised schedule. Earlier, the claim and objection filing window was between August 17 and September 16.
Final Voters List Release Date
The final voter lists after the SIR exercise will be released on October 27, instead of October 19 as scheduled earlier. The enumeration form distribution process is underway in Delhi. The BLOs have disbursed the forms among almost all 1.45 crore voters in the city, while over 62% of the filled-up forms were digitised.
The revision of the SIR deadline would give ample time to voters for submitting their filled-up enumeration forms. The process of digitisation of forms submitted by the voters saw multiple glitches and delays over the past few weeks due to multiple reasons. As per media reports, BLOs are yet to receive submission of forms by many voters. Several media outlets reported that the SIR revision work in Delhi saw delas due to errors in details provided by the voters, technical issues, difficulty in finding voter details, etc. The SIR process in Delhi started on June 30 with door-to-door distribution campaign by BLOs.
SIR Exercise in Mumbai Extended
The SIR exercise in Mumbai has also been extended amid the ongoing house-to-house verification by Booth-Level Officers (BLOs) till August 17. The SIR timeline was revised and approved after a request from the state CEO, as per an order issued to the Maharashtra Chief Electoral Officer. The revised timetable includes house-to-house visits by BLOs in the city.
