Step‑by‑Step Guide to Jharkhand’s SIR Notice, Document Submission and Deadline

The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in Jharkhand follows a clear timeline. 1. Notice issuance – Beginning 24 August, voters identified with no‑mapping, logical discrepancies or other issues receive a notice from the Electoral Registration Officer (ERO). 2. First submission phase – Upon receipt, the voter has seven days to submit identity proof, address proof and any other required documents. 3. Follow‑up notice – If documents are not received, the Block Level Officer (BLO) contacts the voter again and issues a second notice. 4. Second submission phase – Another seven‑day period is granted for document delivery. 5. Objection window – From 5 August to 15 September 2026, voters can raise claims or objections. 6. Final resolution – All pending claims must be settled by 14 October 2026. The Chief Electoral Officer stresses cooperation from District Electoral Officers, ERPs, AERPs and BLOs to ensure a flawless final voter list. Eligible citizens are encouraged to verify their details and submit any corrections promptly.
