The Election Commission of India (EC) will hold a press conference today to announce the initial phase of a pan-India Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, covering 10–15 states/UTs, including poll-bound regions like West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Assam and Puducherry. States such as Maharashtra and snow-bound UTs are being deferred. The exercise aims to update duplicate, invalid or ineligible entries, with enrolment likely starting November 1 and final rolls by late January/early February. (PC: Wikipedia)
