New Delhi, Aug. 25 -- The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Monday said that it has received documents from 99.11 per cent of electors in Bihar, with seven days remaining in the Claims, Objections and Documents period under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in the state.

According to the ECI, this translates to an average daily collection rate of about 1.64 per cent. With the deadline set for September 1, only 0.89 per cent of electors have yet to submit their documents.

The Commission said the document collection process is ongoing with the help of Booth Level Officers (BLOs) and volunteers and is likely to be completed before the stipulated time, similar to the earlier collection of enumeration forms.
