SIR row: ECI orders special drive to enrol 'left-out' voters in 20 states
The Election Commission of India has ordered a special enrolment drive in 20 states and union territories where the SIR (Special Intensive Revision) of voter rolls is complete. Officials must compare the rolls from before and after the revision, find the people who got left out, and add them back using Form 6. If your name went missing, you can apply again.
Key Statutory Highlights
- The ECI has asked 20 states and union territories where SIR is complete to run a special voter enrolment drive.

Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you live in one of the SIR-affected states or union territories, check whether your name is still on the voter roll. If it is missing, you can apply for enrolment through Form 6, and it is best to watch official Election Commission notices for updates.
