Election Commission extends Delhi voter list revision deadline to October 2026

The Election Commission of India has extended Delhi's voter list revision timeline for a second time, with the final electoral roll now set for publication on October 27, 2026. The revised schedule follows a request from Delhi's Chief Electoral Officer. Booth Level Officers will conduct door-to-door verification until August 17, 2026, an extension from the original June 30 deadline. The draft electoral roll will be published on August 24, with claims and objections accepted until September 23, and disposal continuing through October 22. The Special Intensive Revision process aims to add eligible voters, remove ineligible entries, and correct errors. Polling station rationalisation is scheduled for August 17, and officials have been directed to inform political parties and ensure public awareness of the updated timeline.
