  "account": "As of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) draft electoral rolls released in Delhi, nearly 33% of the country's voters have been excluded. With a total elector base of 1,45,10,299, 97,53,577 voters had successful enumeration forms collected, representing 67.22% of the total population. However, a staggering 47,56,722 entries have been flagged and excluded from the draft rolls. The primary reasons for these exclusions include 43,32,775 permanently shifted electors, 2,82,412 deceased voters, and 1,41,535 duplicate entries. Affected individuals have until September 30, 2026, to rectify their voter status through the claims and objections window. This exclusion impacts 13 out of Delhi's 70 assembly constituencies, with over 40% of their registered voters left out. The SIR has also altered the demographic composition, with male voters decreasing by 40.25% and female voters by 33.59%.",
  "summary": "The CEO Delhi revealed that 67.22% of voters were successfully enumerated in the SIR phase, but nearly 33% were excluded. The exclusions include deceased and duplicate entries. Affected citizens can rectify their status from 31 August to 30 September 2026, according to the CEO's office.",
