History

Historical Context

Since the Election Commission of India’s 1993 National Electoral Roll Purification cut 2.3 million duplicate names in Delhi (4 % reduction), it has continued periodic intensive revisions—last in 2003 and a Special Intensive Revision in 2025 that removed about 5 % of voters nationwide. Delhi’s Chief Electoral Officer now runs October enrollment camps to approach the 31 % verification goal before the 2025 municipal elections.
