Once completed, the status of your form will appear. If the form has been uploaded successfully, a message stating, “Your form has already been submitted. For more details, contact your BLO,” will be displayed. If no such message appears, the portal will open a blank enumeration form, indicating that your data has not yet been uploaded.
The Special Intensive Revision primarily aims to identify and remove foreign illegal migrants from the electoral rolls by verifying voters’ place of birth. This exercise has gained significance amid ongoing crackdowns on illegal migrants in several states, particularly those from neighboring countries like Bangladesh and Myanmar.
The ECI encourages all voters to verify their details promptly to ensure their names are included in the voter list ahead of upcoming elections. Citizens are also urged to contact their respective BLOs for assistance if any discrepancies or delays are observed.
