The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) 2025 launched by the Election Commission of India (ECI) is a major nationwide exercise to update and verify the electoral rolls. Unlike routine updates, SIR involves door-to-door verification by Booth Level Officers (BLOs) to ensure that only genuine, eligible voters remain on the list and no deserving citizen is left out.
With many states currently under SIR, millions of voters are searching online about how to check their name in SIR voter list, download e-EPIC voter ID, and correct errors in voter records. This guide explains everything in simple steps.

What Is Special Intensive Revision (SIR)?
SIR (Special Intensive Revision) is conducted when a comprehensive re-verification of voter data is necessary. BLOs physically verify households to:
- Confirm existing voters
- Add new eligible voters
- Delete duplicate or shifted entries
- Update incorrect names, ages, photos, or addresses
This differs from Special Summary Revision (SSR), which is the regular annual revision without door-to-door verification, and Special Revision (SR) currently used only in selected regions like Assam for demographic verification purposes.
