Delhi CM Rekha Gupta, Arvind Kejriwal among 3.16 mn voters issued notices for SIR ‘discrepancies’
The office of the Delhi CEO published the list of electors served notices, nearly three weeks after the draft electoral roll of voters in the city was released.
Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal were among over 3.16 million voters who received notices for discrepancies after the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in the national capital. The Delhi Chief Electoral Officer recently published the list of electors who received these notices, nearly three weeks after the draft electoral roll was released on August 31.
Voters flagged under these categories must submit their responses and documentation to be included in the final roll. Both Gupta and Kejriwal had discrepancies concerning the age difference between them and their parents. The Shalimar Bagh ERO, which flagged Gupta's entry, later verified her information and included her in the final roll.
Kejriwal, his wife, parents, and son were also flagged due to their details not being mapped with the last SIR. The Election Commission aims to decide on all notices by October 29, with the final electoral roll being published on November 4.
