Event Summary

The India — Election Commission of India (ECI) has extended the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) schedule for electoral rolls in India — Kerala by one week.

The new enumeration period in India — Kerala has been extended until December 18, with the draft electoral roll to be published by December 23. Claims and objections can be filed until January 22, 2026, and the final electoral roll will be published on February 21, 2026. The request to the India — Supreme Court of India was initiated by P.
