Amid the ongoing criticism of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Delhi on Monday said that around 20 lakh of the 33
lakh entries flagged for logical discrepancies or unmapped details in the national capital's electoral rolls have been resolved. In a message regarding the SIR 2026, the CEO said a proactive campaign had been initiated to address the discrepancies and resolve the issues flagged in the voter list. In a post on X, the official account of the Chief Electoral Officer wrote, "Regarding Special Intensive Revision (SIR) 2026. About 33 lakh entries in the Delhi voter list were under Logical Discrepancy/ Un-mapped. We had started a proactive campaign to resolve these issues. By now, around 20 lakh cases out of 33 lakh have been resolved."
The CEO further urged people with grievances to contact the officials concerned, including Booth Level Officers (BLOs), Assistant Electoral Registration Officers (AEROs), Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), District Election Officers (DEOs) or the CEO.
“If any person has any grievance, please feel free to contact any of the 14,947 BLOs, 902 AEROs, 70 EROs, 13 DEOs or the CEO. No eligible voter will be excluded from the voter list,” the post read.
On Wednesday last week, the Delhi CEO, in an effort to facilitate the enrolment of eligible electors who have been left out of the electoral rolls as part of the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR), announced special camps across the national capital.
The CEO alsoi reviewed the progress of disposal of notices and Claims and Objections with all District Election Officers, Electoral Registration Officers and Assistant Electoral Registration Officers of the National Capital.
The Delhi CEO and the Election Commission of India are committed to ensuring that "every eligible elector is added and no ineligible entries remain in the Electoral Roll".
With the objective of maximising the enrolment of young electors, special camps were organised at different colleges and universities across Delhi on Wednesday. The camps will continue on October 8 as well.
