The Election Commission of India (ECI) has said that 99 per cent of electors have already been covered under the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in poll-bound Bihar, ECI said.
The poll body further stated that the booth-level lists of those electors who have not filled their forms, of deceased electors, and of electors who have permanently migrated have already been shared by BLOs/EROs/DEOs/CEOs with all political parties on July 20, so that they can point out any errors.
As per the SIR Order, any elector or any political party can file a claim in case of any missing names or raise an objection in case of any wrong inclusion till September 1.
‘99% of electors have already been covered. BLOs/BLAs have reported the names of 21.6 lakh deceased electors. BLOs/BLAs have reported the names of 31.5 lakh electors who have permanently migrated. BLOs/BLAs have found 7 lakh electors are registered at more than one place,’ they added.
