Chandigarh, June 21 (SocialNews.XYZ) As part of the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) campaign being conducted in Chandigarh from June 15 to July 14, a series of voter awareness activities were organised on the sidelines of International Yoga Day celebrations at Tiranga Park in Sector 17.
The initiative aimed to encourage citizens to verify and update their electoral details and participate actively in the electoral process.
A helpdesk was set up at the venue to provide information on voter registration, electoral roll updation and other related procedures.
Informational pamphlets highlighting the objectives and importance of the SIR campaign were also distributed among participants and visitors. To enhance public engagement, a signature campaign was conducted, encouraging citizens to pledge their support for timely verification and updation of electoral records.
A dedicated selfie point carrying awareness messages on the SIR campaign was also established, enabling participants to spread awareness through social media and personal networks.
The awareness activities received an encouraging response from the public and served as an effective platform for disseminating information about the ongoing revision process, an official statement said.
Citizens were urged to make full use of the campaign period from June 15 to July 14 to verify and update their electoral details and contribute towards maintaining an accurate and inclusive electoral roll.
Meanwhile, booth level officers (BLOs) have achieved nearly 100 per cent distribution of enumeration forms across Chandigarh by June 21.
They will now undertake another round of visits to collect the duly filled forms from electors.
Citizens were informed that submission of the enumeration form is mandatory, and only those electors who submit the completed form will be considered for inclusion in the electoral roll.
Last week, a walkathon was organised at the Sukhna Lake with the participation of over 200 anganwadi workers and civil defence volunteers. Participants raised the slogan “SIR, Chandigarh Hai Tayyar”, reflecting the city’s commitment towards maintaining accurate and updated electoral rolls. Volunteers also interacted with the public and disseminated information about the SIR programme.
