Neta·ResumeNo SIR figures for Nagaland are in the record yet. It is in Phase III of the SIR.
The draft roll was due on 20 September 2026 and is not in the record's tallies (numbers-phase3-draft-tally-2026-09-01).
The Commission ordered the third SIR phase in 19 states and UTs, again on the basis of the 24 June 2025 order, with qualifying dates of 1 July or 1 October 2026 and final rolls from 6 September to 23 December 2026. The order let people link themselves through their own or a relative's entry in the last intensive revision roll, and told EROs to issue notices after the draft to anyone who could not be linked or whose linking showed a discrepancy.
The phase 3 press note of 14.05.2026 (ECI PN-86) is listed on eci.gov.in but returned 'Access denied' on download. The Commission later said this order, too, was unanimous (reported, 24.09.2026). Reasons for leaving out Himachal Pradesh and J&K (Census work and weather) and Assam are from The Indian Express, not an ECI document.
