Pune SIR: 28.8 lakh voters set to be deleted, 15.4 lakh to be called for hearings

In the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter rolls in the Pune district, 28.79 lakh voters out of the 90.80 lakh registered are slated to be deleted. Additionally, 15.43 lakh voters are expected to attend hearings due to logical discrepancies or discrepancies in their current voter roll records compared to the 2002 records.

The SIR is being conducted by the Election Commission and is expected to conclude by October 27. Logical discrepancies may arise from discrepancies in age records, errors in names, or flaws in the mapping process. These cases will be resolved through document verification, and notices will be issued to concerned voters through Booth Level Officers.
