EC Extends Special Summary Revision Schedule; Final Roll on Feb 14, 2026

The Election Commission of India has extended the Special Summary Revision (SSR) schedule by one week, pushing the publication of the final electoral roll to February 14, 2026. The decision comes in view of demands from state authorities and citizen groups to allow more time for voter addition, correction, and rectification of entries. The extension aims to ensure accuracy in the electoral register ahead of upcoming elections. The EC reiterated that transparency and inclusiveness remain the backbone of the electoral process, emphasizing full accessibility for new voters, especially first-time youth electors.
