The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, ordered by the Election Commission of India, would be carried out in the nine Assembly constituencies in Tiruchi district from November 4 to December 4.
The exercise would be carried out with January 1, 2026 as the qualifying date, according to an official press release from the district administration.
Disclosing this at a consultative meeting with representatives of recognised political parties here on Wednesday, Collector V. Saravanan said an exclusive app had been developed and would be used for the exercise.
Over 2,500 booth level officers (BLOs) would be involved in carrying out the exercise in the district. The BLOs would go door-to-door to issue the enumeration forms to existing voters.
