City voters will have option to submit enumeration forms online
Under the mega SIR exercise for verification of Delhi’s electoral rolls, beginning with door-to-door visits by booth-level officers (BLOs) from June 30, the voters will have the option to submit their enumeration forms online.
Political parties in Delhi have also intensified preparations for the special intensive revision (SIR), intensifying training of their booth-level agents (BLAs) across over 13,000 polling booths in the city. Delhi Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) office said the main objective of the SIR is “no eligible citizen is left out while no ineligible person is included in the electoral roll”. The exercise will cover all voters aged 18 years and above by the qualifying date, which is October 1.
During SIR, over 13,000 BLOs will conduct house-to-house enumeration. Every existing elector, whose name exists in the electoral roll will be provided an enumeration form (in duplicate) to be filled by them and return one copy to the BLOs, said a Delhi CEO office statement.
Provision will also be given to electors to fill out the enumeration form online during the SIR period, said the CEO’s office. The voter list of SIR, held in 2002 in Delhi, has been uploaded to the website of the CEO, Delhi. Voters who have shifted in Delhi from other states after 2002 can find their names on the Election Commission of India (ECI) portal.
Door-to-door visits by BLOs will start from June 30 and conclude on July 29, after which the draft electoral roll will be published on August 5. The final electoral roll after SIR will be published on October 7.
The voters who are permanently staying in Delhi prior to 2002 can check their names in the voter list of 2002 and note down their details. The CEO's office said that voters who moved to Delhi from other states after 2002 will not find their names in Delhi’s 2002 voter list.
