7. During the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the Electoral Rolls in Bihar, the entire electoral machinery, that is, nearly 1 lakh BLOs, 4 lakh volunteers, 1.5 lakh BLAs appointed by the political parties and their district presidents are working together in a mission mode to ensure that the name of no eligible elector is left out from the draft Electoral Roll to be published on August 01, 2025. With 6 more days still to go for filling up of the Enumeration Forms, the Election Commission is making all possible efforts to ensure that the remaining nearly 32 lakh electors are added to the draft Electoral Roll. BLOs have already completed over 3 rounds of the house-to-house visits and have established contact with the electors. A concerted effort by the entire electoral machinery along with yet another round of visits by the BLOs has also been started to establish contact with the remaining electors.
8. The Election Commission, through country-wide newspaper advertisements and through all other possible means of communication is informing such electors of Bihar who have temporarily moved out to any other part of the country. To enrol the remaining urban electors, special camps have also been set up in all the 5,683 wards of all 261 Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) of Bihar.
9. In accordance with the SIR order dated 24.06.2025 (page 2/para 7), in case any name has been added by mistake or has been left out or there is any error in the draft Electoral Roll to be published on August 01, 2025, the same can be rectified by August 30, 2025. For the purpose, claims and objections can be lodged by any elector, any political party or any BLA appointed by the political party.
