The Election Commission said on Thursday that so far 42 crore (82.71%) forms have been distributed to voters in 12 states and union territories. There are 50.99 crore voters in all these states. Despite all the opposition, 93% forms have been distributed in Bengal, which is much more than 94% in Gujarat and 86% in Rajasthan.
The second round of Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter list began on November 4 in 12 states. The work of printing specific enumeration forms and distributing them to voters is underway. West Bengal is the most talked about opposition to SIR. The Commission claims that work is being done at a fast pace in Bengal.
Trinamool has claimed that 18 people have died in the state over the SIR issue. Trinamool has alleged that the Commission has changed the rules for appointing Booth Level Agents (BLAs) among SIRs.
Bhaskar learned about the problems of voters and BLOs from 7 states.
Rajasthan: BLO form left, how to fill it At present the calculation forms are being distributed. The real picture will emerge when the form is returned. Names of many people are not in the voter list of 2002. In such a situation, they are being asked for voter ID of their mother or father. Many people don’t even have this. Many people complain that the BLO forms were left without any information on how to fill them.
Fifth note of musical scale. Bengal: Time is running out to find the phone number There is huge pressure on BLO to deliver the forms. A female BLO told that she had to go from door to door till 8 pm. Addresses of many people changed. Time is wasted in searching for phone numbers and talking. Transgenders are facing problems. Many family members have broken ties. There is no mention of transgender card in 12 documents.
Chhattisgarh: Challenge of adding names of daughters-in-law It became a challenge to add the names of those women who came after getting married from other states. There is a problem in opening the voter list of other states on the BLO app. Voters are having difficulty finding their own old records. Thousands of voters are working in other cities. It has become difficult for BLOs to contact.
Madhya Pradesh: Changing house becomes a problem Members of a family are registered in a separate booth. The reason is not updating the address and frequent shifting of house. The problem is more in cities. Incorrect mapping led to the problem of duplicate or missing voters. Deployed such BLO, whose name is in the list of the same booth. The field team remained halved. Experienced BLO is out. Unable to run new apps.
Gujarat: Trouble due to name being in the list of different states Many BLOs have had to take the help of their sons and acquaintances so that the forms can be distributed on time. There is also a problem in matching due to names being in the voter lists of different states and cities.
Tamil Nadu: Problem due to change of residence There are about one lakh people in Chennai who have changed their place of residence. In such a situation, they are afraid of their names being struck off because they have not updated their addresses. BLO says that collecting filled forms is becoming a more complex problem. Know what kind of problems are being faced in other states of the country…
Kerala: BLO alerted after dog was abandoned; knocking till night BLOs are reaching voters’ homes even at night. On November 6, a person had left the dog at the BLO in Kottayam. Due to this he suffered injuries on his neck and face. Since then the BLOs are maintaining vigilance.
The entire process of SIR will end on 7th February.

SIR what is the motive?
SIR from 1951 to 2004 has been completed, but is pending for the last 21 years. In this long period, many changes are necessary in the voter list. Like migration of people, name being in voter list at two places.
Name remains even after death. Removal of foreign nationals once their names appear in the list. No eligible voter should be left out in the list and no ineligible voter should be included in the list.
Know this also…
What to do if your name is removed from the list? You can appeal on the basis of the draft voter list for one month. You can appeal against the decision of ERO to the DM and against the decision of the DM you can appeal to the CEO.
Where to get complaint or help?
Call helpline 1950. Contact your BLO or District Election Office.
Why was the voter list of Bihar added to the documents? If a person wishes to get his name included in the voter list in any of the 12 states and he submits the excerpt of the post-SIR list of Bihar which contains the names of his parents, he will not be required to submit additional proof of citizenship. Just providing proof of date of birth will be sufficient.
Is Aadhaar recognized as proof of identity? Following a Supreme Court directive in September, the Election Commission had directed Bihar election officials to accept Aadhaar cards as an additional document to establish the identity of voters.
The Commission has clarified that Aadhaar will be accepted only as identity proof and not as citizenship proof.
