THIRUVANANTHAPUAM: The Office of the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), Kerala on Tuesday announced significant progress in the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of Electoral Rolls, reporting that more than 96 per cent of Enumeration Forms have been distributed across the state.

The achievement is attributed to the dedicated efforts of Booth Level Officers (BLOs), supported by district administrations and election machinery.

To facilitate form collection and data entry, district administrations have put in place special camps, logistical support systems and dedicated centres equipped with technical infrastructure to assist BLOs in digitising forms in a time-bound manner.

Recognised political parties have also been encouraged to nominate Booth Level Agents (BLAs) and set up help desks to support collection, thereby reducing the workload of BLOs.
