Neta·ResumeSpecial Intensive Revision, Phase III. 2 figures on record from Jul 2026 to Sep 2026.
| Stage | Electors | As of | Source | Tier | Flags |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Draft roll | 4,50,282 | 2026-07-21 | Chandigarh final roll adds net 9,927 electors to 4,60,209 |
A draft roll is not the final roll — names still return through claims and appeals.
The draft roll is published after enumeration. Names left off it can come back through claims and objections, and new electors are added, before the final roll is published. So the share left off the draft is usually larger than the net change from the pre-SIR roll to the final roll. Where a final roll isn't in the record yet, only the draft measure can be shown.
Figures run to Sep 2026. Several final rolls were still pending then.
No pre-SIR 'before' figure for Chandigarh was found in the record.

Every bar starts at zero. Differences are simple subtraction of the cited figures. A computed stage's method is in its note.
The Supreme Court disposed of the petitions against the Bihar SIR, holding the exercise traceable to Section 21(3) of the RP Act, 1950 read with Article 324, proportionate, and consistent with the 1960 Rules. It upheld the document regime as within the Commission's discretion (Aadhaar having been added by its 8 September 2025 order) and said the Commission may make a limited, electoral-only inquiry into citizenship. It directed that people deleted as non-citizens be referred within four weeks to the competent authority under the Citizenship Act.
Relevant to the Form 6 dispute: the judgment discusses the Commission's power to design SIR documentation, not whether the statutory Form 6 in the Rules may be altered without a Government notification. No ECI instruction on the four-week referral direction was found.
On the SIR's legal basis, raised in the debate: the Supreme Court's later judgment of 27 May 2026 on the Bihar SIR traced the Commission's power to Section 21(3) of the RP Act, 1950.
