The exercise will help state poll machinery find out the number of electors who were in the electoral roll after the last intensive revision and continue to be in the latest voter list.

As was the case in Bihar, the voters will not have to submit any documents but only semi-filled enumeration forms.

There isa view in EC that mapping of current electors with those in the last SIR will ensure that more than half the electorate in most states may not give any documents in SIR.
