The election authorities have completed the digitisation of all Special Intensive Revision (SIR) enumeration forms in Kozhikode district.
The authorities had distributed 26,58,847 forms across the district. According to Revenue officials, booth-level officers (BLOs) played a crucial role in achieving the target as the deadline for submission of the filled-in forms ended on Thursday (December 18).
Officials said forms received by the deadline would be included in the draft electoral roll, scheduled for publication on December 23.
The election authorities have also finalised the ASD (absent, shifted, dead) list, which includes 1,88,721 voters who could not be located despite repeated visits by BLOs, those who had passed away, individuals without permanent residence, and cases of duplicate registrations. The ASD list has been shared with all BLOs and booth-level agents to ensure transparency. Voters and political representatives can verify details through the BLOs concerned.
At the same time, officials said 3.71% of the returned forms — a total of 98,623 — could not be matched with the 2002 electoral roll and would undergo further verification. The voters concerned would be contacted as part of the verification process, they added.
