Work on Second Phase of Special Intensive Revision (SIR)-2026 Campaign Underway

Chandigarh, August 5: As per the directions of the Election Commission of India, the process of making the electoral roll error-free and updated under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR)-2026 is continuing. Under this campaign, notices are being issued to electors in cases involving unmapped electors and various types of discrepancies.

Haryana Chief Electoral Officer A. Sreenivas said that a total of 44,86,035 notices were required to be generated by July 31, 2026, of which 42,69,239 notices have been prepared so far. These notices are being served to the concerned electors through Booth Level Officers (BLOs), while the process of issuing notices in the remaining cases is also being expedited. Meanwhile, as of August 5, 2026, 8,942 applications in Form-6, 194 in Form-7 and 8,294 in Form-8 have been received.

During the Special Intensive Revision campaign, Booth Level Officers (BLOs) are carrying out various election-related tasks, including door-to-door verification, distribution and collection of forms, and disposal of claims and objections. Considering the scale and importance of the work during the campaign, each BLO and BLO Supervisor will also be given a one-time honorarium of Rs. 6,000 in addition to their annual honorarium.

The Chief Electoral Officer has appealed to all eligible electors to check their names in the draft electoral roll. If the name of any eligible elector is not included in the list, they should apply by filling Form-6. In case of any error in the elector’s details, Form-8 should be filled and submitted to the concerned Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) or the BLO by August 30, 2026, so that the name of every eligible elector can be correctly included in the final electoral roll.
