CHENNAI: DMK MP and party's legal wing secretary NR Elango on Tuesday expressed concern that the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral rolls could result in the deletion of several lakh voters across Tamil Nadu.

He said both electors and Booth Level Officers (BLOs) were facing difficulties because many people were unable to fill out the enumeration forms.

Elango said the issues raised earlier by the DMK regarding the SIR process were now visible on the ground. According to him, BLOs had been facing criticism as they were struggling with procedural challenges, including accessing the 2002 voter list. He said the list was either not fully downloadable or, when downloaded, lacked complete information. This had caused inconvenience to the public, he added.
