Enumeration forms of 86% electors in Bihar collected, says ECI

New Delhi: About 86% of the enumeration forms, that is forms from 6.81 crore of the total 7.89 crore electors in Bihar, have been collected.

All the remaining electors would be contacted individually by the booth level officers (BLOs) so that they submit their forms before the July 25 deadline, the ECI said on Tuesday.

"Accounting for the deceased, permanently shifted and people enrolled in more than one place, the EF collection phase of the SIR has covered 90.84% of the nearly 7.9 crore electorate in Bihar.


Only 9.16% electors remain to submit their filled EFs before July 25," ECI said. It said the third round of household visits by nearly one lakh BLOs will soon begin to collect the filled enumeration forms of the remaining electors as part of the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Bihar.
