EC Reverts to Online Form 6 Submission Without SIR Declaration in Non-SIR States

The Election Commission removed mandatory parent details and declarations from online Form 6 applications in states where special intensive roll revision is absent.

The declaration was initially introduced to map voters against previous electoral rolls during the special intensive revision process across specific phases.

EC officials stated that IT system changes caused online submissions to require dual e-signatures, prompting the recent administrative correction.
