Election Commission extends SIR schedule by one week

Under the revised plan, the enumeration drive and polling-station rationalisation—earlier expected to wrap up by December 4—will now continue until December 11.

The preparation of the control table and the draft roll will run from December 12 to 15, with the draft roll to be published on December 16. The old schedule had placed draft publication around December 9 across states.

The period for filing claims and objections has also been aligned with the new dates. Instead of closing on January 8, as originally planned, the window will now remain open until January 15.
