SIR process in Haryana: Nearly 1 in 3 Gurugram voters may vanish from electoral rolls

Nearly one in three registered voters in Gurugram could be removed from electoral rolls after the completion of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) enumeration process, with the city recording Haryana’s highest share of unverified electors. Of the 15.6 lakh registered voters, 4.6 lakh (29.3%) have been classified as absent, permanently shifted, deceased, registered elsewhere or under other categories that may lead to deletion after the claims and objections process.

Despite the Election Commission extending the verification deadline by 10 days, only around 4% more voters completed the process. Officials said the exercise has been difficult in Gurugram due to limited access to voters living in condominiums.
