SHILLONG, JUL 2: A fresh round of electoral roll updating is in full swing across East Khasi Hills, with Booth Level Officers fanning out to 898 polling parts since June 30 to distribute enumeration forms to households in all 15 Assembly constituencies of the district.
63,731 enumeration forms had been distributed and 1,401 digitized as of July 2, three days into the Special Intensive Revision Enumeration Phase.
The exercise is scheduled to complete distribution and collection of filled forms by July 29.
“The Special Intensive Revision Enumeration Phase commenced on 30th June 2026 in all the 898 parts of all the 15 Assembly Constituencies in East Khasi Hills District,” the District Election Officer said in a statement on Thursday.
