Gangtok:28th June:The Office of the Chief Electoral Officer, Sikkim, has successfully completed the Enumeration Phase of
the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the Electoral Roll – Phase III, conducted from 30th May to 28th
June 2026 across all six districts of the State.
The Special Intensive Revision has been undertaken in accordance with the directions of the Election
Commission of India (ECI) to ensure that the electoral roll remains accurate, inclusive, transparent
and free from ineligible or duplicate entries, while simultaneously ensuring that every eligible citizen
is provided adequate opportunity to be enrolled as an elector.
The exercise represents one of the largest field verification programmes undertaken in the State,
involving extensive house-to-house visits by Booth Level Officers (BLOs), active participation of
Booth Level Agents (BLAs), Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), Assistant Electoral Registration
Officers (AEROs), District Election Officers (DEOs), recognised political parties and the electors
themselves.
The guiding principle throughout the exercise has remained the Election Commission’s commitment
that “No Eligible Voter to be Left Behind”, thereby strengthening the foundations of “Democracy that
Delivers.”
