  "account": "Between August 31 and October 22, Delhi's voter rolls saw 4.76 million names removed, but only 250,000 Form 6 applications were filed, according to the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO). West Delhi had the most applications, totaling 30,361, while New Delhi saw the fewest, with just 4,341. The CEO also mentioned that roughly 2.95 million of the 3.3 million flagged people were resolved, meaning they will be part of the final rolls unless challenged through Form 7. Special camps were held across the country to help voters return to the rolls, with 89,000 camps held between September 20 and October 22, resulting in 158,470 additional Form 6 applications. The period for filing claims and objections closes on October 30, and the final roll will be published on December 4.",
