Delhi SIR: L K Advani, EAM S Jaishankar, Election Commissioner SS Sandhu Get Notices For 'Discrepancies' In Voter Details

Delhi Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) has issued notices to prominent figures, including former deputy prime minister LK Advani, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, former vice-president Jagdeep Dhankhar, and Election Commissioner SS Sandhu, for discrepancies in their voter details. The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise has resulted in 33.13 lakh notices being issued to voters who failed to match their details with the last SIR in 2002.

The Delhi CEO has clarified that the issuance of a notice does not mean the voter's name will be deleted from the electoral rolls; rather, it is a data correction process underway.
