Pune SIR Verification Ends With 68.34% Forms Digitised, 31.65% Uncollectable
Pune is checking its official list of people who are allowed to vote in elections.
Workers went door-to-door with forms to make sure the list is correct.
Out of about 90 lakh forms, more than 68 out of every 100 were collected and put into computers.
Almost one in three forms, however, could not be collected.
People whose forms were not collected may have their names removed from the voters' list.
The election office has put up special lists showing names marked as absent, shifted, dead or duplicate.
If your name is on that list, you can fill out Form 6 to ask to be put back on the list.
Some areas, like Baramati, finished more than 88% of their work.
Big city areas like Khadakwasala and Kothrud finished only about half of their work.
The final voters' list will be printed at the end of October after everyone has had a chance to fix problems.
The verification phase of the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls in Pune district ended with 68.34% of 90.80 lakh elector forms digitised.
28.74 lakh forms (31.65%) were marked uncollectable, and voters on ASDD lists will be deleted unless they enrol again using Form 6.
Baramati recorded the highest digitisation at 88.22%, while Khadakwasala had the lowest at 53.29%.
Rural constituencies showed higher digitisation levels than several Pune city and Pimpri-Chinchwad constituencies.
Remaining forms will be digitised by 19th August, with the draft electoral roll due on 24th August and the final roll on 27th October.

Deputy Collector and District Election Officer, Pune
“Uncollected will now get deleted from the voters list. Absent, Shifted, Dead and Duplicate (ASDD) lists are on the websites; the voter needs to verify the lists. If his or her name is in the ASDD, he or she will have to fill out Form No. 6 with a declaration to enrol his or her name in the final roll.”
