Delhi election officials announced on Tuesday that the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls has reached a significant milestone, with over 75 lakh (7.5 million) voter verification and enumeration forms now digitized. This administrative effort is designed to update and maintain the accuracy of the city's voter database.

According to the official data released by the election department, the digitization project has successfully covered more than 52 percent of the total electorate in Delhi. The SIR process is a routine administrative exercise conducted to ensure that voter rolls are current, allowing for the addition of new voters, the removal of outdated entries, and the correction of existing information. By moving these records into a digital format, the department aims to streamline the verification process and improve the accessibility of electoral data for future polling cycles.

While the report highlights the volume of data processed, it does not specify a timeline for the completion of the remaining 48 percent of the electorate. The digitization effort is part of a broader push to modernize electoral management systems, reducing reliance on paper-based records and minimizing potential errors in voter registration. Officials have indicated that the process is ongoing, though no specific challenges or delays were mentioned in the initial data release.
