Massive Voter Enrollment Drive Reaches 97.52% Coverage
The Election Commission of India has achieved a significant milestone in its ongoing voter registration drive, successfully distributing enumeration forms to 49.73 crore voters out of the total 50.97 crore eligible citizens across twelve states and union territories. This represents an impressive 97.52% coverage rate during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) program currently underway.
Near-Complete Distribution Across Participating Regions
According to the latest update released on November 16, 2025, the electoral body has made substantial progress in ensuring that eligible voters receive the necessary documentation to participate in the democratic process. The extensive exercise covers multiple regions where the Special Intensive Revision is being conducted simultaneously.
The distribution mechanism has been particularly effective, with Block Level Officers playing a crucial role in reaching voters at the grassroots level. The systematic approach has ensured that even remote areas are included in this comprehensive enrollment initiative.
Lakshadweep Shows Exceptional Progress
One notable achievement highlighted by the Election Commission comes from the union territory of Lakshadweep, where distribution has reached near-total coverage. Officials have confirmed that enumeration forms have been distributed to all but one voter across the archipelago's 57,813 registered voters.
The success in Lakshadweep demonstrates the effectiveness of the Block Level Officers system in ensuring comprehensive voter outreach, even in geographically challenging regions. The island territory has set a remarkable example for efficient form distribution during the revision process.
Ongoing Efforts and Future Implications
The Special Intensive Revision represents a critical component of the Election Commission's strategy to maintain accurate and updated electoral rolls. With 97.52% of targeted voters already receiving their enumeration forms, the commission is well-positioned to complete the revision process efficiently.
This massive exercise underscores India's commitment to strengthening democratic institutions and ensuring that every eligible citizen has the opportunity to exercise their voting rights. The high distribution percentage achieved so far indicates robust administrative coordination and effective implementation at the ground level.
As the Special Intensive Revision continues, election officials remain focused on reaching the remaining voters and addressing any gaps in the distribution network. The progress reported reflects the systematic approach adopted by the Election Commission to enhance voter participation and electoral integrity across the country.
