The Election Commission of India has reported significant headway in the second phase of its flagship electoral roll update initiative. Officials have stated that the distribution of enumeration forms is nearly complete across all designated areas.
Progress on SIR 2.0's Second Phase
This development marks a crucial step in the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR 2.0) exercise. The second phase of this extensive drive officially commenced on November 4, 2025, with the enumeration stage forming its backbone. According to the schedule released by the Election Commission, this phase is set to continue until December 4, 2025.
The Enumeration Process Explained
The enumeration stage involves the systematic collection of data from eligible voters. With the forms now almost entirely distributed, the focus shifts to their collection and the subsequent verification of information. This process is vital for ensuring the accuracy and inclusiveness of the electoral roll, a cornerstone of democratic integrity.
The successful and timely distribution of these forms is a key logistical achievement for the Election Commission. It sets the stage for the remainder of the revision period, allowing for a smooth data collection process before the December 4th deadline.
