Jaipur, Feb. 22 -- The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Saturday published the final electoral rolls for 199 of 200 assembly constituencies (ACs) in Rajasthan after over three-and-a-half months long Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise. The final roll has 51.52 million electors, reflecting a net contraction of 5.7% compared to the roll before the exercise. The SIR exercise in Anta AC is running behind the rest of the state because of a by-election on November 11. On October 27, before the SIR exercise began, the other 199 ACs in Rajasthan had 54.66 million electors. After the enumeration phase of the SIR exercise, this number decreased to 50.47 million, a decline of 7.7% compared to the pre-SIR roll. In the claims and objections phase of SIR after the draft roll was published, 1,291,365 names were added and 242,760 names were deleted from the state's rolls, leading to a net addition of 1.05 million names to the draft roll. The final roll published on Saturday has 51.52 million electors, 2.1% more than the draft roll and 5.7% less than the pre-SIR roll. "We have received over 2 lakh Form 6 submissions to include new electors, out of which 12.91 lakh were added to the final list," said chief electoral officer Naveen Mahajan. The maximum increase in voters compared to the draft roll was in Jaipur (3.45%), Phalodi (3.22%), and Bharatpur (2.78%). The broad trends in Rajasthan are in line with the trends seen in other states/UTs that have undergone the SIR exercise. Bihar, where the SIR was conducted first, saw a net deletion of 6% compared to its pre-SIR roll compared to 8.3% deletion seen at the draft stage. Of the other 11 states/UTs, where SIR exercise began alongside Rajasthan, eight have published their final rolls by now. Most of them have also seen their electoral roll increase compared to the draft roll, although the final roll in all of them is smaller than before SIR began. Of the total names excised from Rajasthan's rolls in the SIR exercise, around 875,000 were found dead, 2.48 million were permanently shifted to other places, around 457,000 were absent during the survey, 242,000 were unmapped to the 2002 SIR list and also could not produce necessary documents, and over 27,000 names were also deleted due to some other reasons. "This chunk of voters were either dead, permanently shifted to a different state, found absent, or have been traced in multiple places (duplicate)," said Mahajan. "A copy of the final electoral roll has already been shared with the political parties. We have also updated the draft roll to our official website. People may lodge an application against any decision taken by the polling staff regarding the final roll in the next 15 days," he added. Officials said that over a million voters could not be mapped to the final list published after the last SIR in 2002, and were served notice to produce documents to claim eligibility after the draft roll was published....
