60% Notice Cases Verified in Delhi as Disposal Rate Speeds Up
· India · The Hindu
Delhi election officials have verified about 60%, or nearly 20 lakh of the 33 lakh electors who were served notices under the special intensive revision of electoral rolls. The accelerated disposal follows the introduction of new options on the ECINET portal and oral directions from Gyanesh Kumar's office to prevent wrongful deletions. Authorities have cleared 19 lakh cases in the past two weeks alone, driven by reduced scrutiny at hearing centres where officials are no longer turning away voters over missing documents. The special intensive revision targets electors with logical discrepancies or those unmapped in the 2002 rolls, ahead of the final roll publication on December 4. The last date for disposing of these notices is November 30.
Why it matters
The expedited verification protects nearly 20 lakh Delhi voters from wrongful disenfranchisement while easing administrative backlogs ahead of upcoming electoral deadlines.
