Two weeks into the special intensive revision (SIR) of the electoral roll in Delhi, the Election Commission (EC) on Wednesday extended the deadline for the ongoing door-to-door visits to August 8 as digitisation of the enumeration forms is yet to pick up pace.

As per the revised schedule for the exercise shared by the EC, the deadline for the month-long house-to-house verification that began on June 30 has been extended by 10 days. The exercise that was scheduled till July 29 will now continue till August 8.
