ECI introduces ‘edit option’ for BLOs in app to correct wrong enumeration data entries

The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Monday announced the introduction of "edit options" in the booth-level officers (BLO) apps for correction of wrong enumeration data entries during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) in the 12 Indian states and Union Territories (UTs) that began on 4 November.

- 

Either the BLOs or the electoral registration officers (EROs) will be able to make corrections in the wrong enumeration data entries that have already been made.

The commission had also intimated that since the SIR schedule had been extended by seven days, a part of that extra time could be easily utilised for the wrong enumeration data entities already done.

Till now, there was no option for the correction or editing of enumeration data entities already done in the BLOs apps.
