Earlier last month, the CEO said that Booth Level Officers (BLOs) collected nearly 1.62 lakh forms during house visits to address additions, deletions, and corrections in the electoral roll in the past three months.
On November 28, Vaz also highlighted that for the upcoming Assembly elections, the number of polling stations is likely to increase by 70, ensuring better accessibility and convenience for voters across Delhi.
She said house-to-house verification was conducted by BLOs from August 20 to identify unenrolled voters, prospective electors who will turn 18 by October 1, 2025, and entries requiring deletion, such as those for deceased or permanently shifted voters.
"Cases of multiple entries and family splits were also identified. During this extensive verification drive, BLOs collected nearly 1.62 lakh forms (6, 7, and 8) to address additions, deletions, and corrections in the electoral roll," Vaz said in a statement.
