BMC, KMC civic survey extended till November 22
The Story in Brief
The door-to-door survey in Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) and Kataka Municipal Corporation (KMC) areas has been extended by 15 days, now scheduled to conclude on 22 November. The survey was originally due to end on 7 November.
The State Election Commission (SEC) approved the extension on Friday (6 November) after requests from both municipal corporations. The Commission has directed the commissioners to complete the survey accurately within the revised deadline and to set up proper monitoring and supervision.
The extension gives field teams more time to cover the two municipal areas. The SEC has stated that there should be no further delay.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The SEC's extension gives field staff 15 extra days to complete enumeration, but the Commission has warned against any further slippage. This sets a firm deadline of 22 November for the data collection that underpins ward delimitation and voter rolls for the upcoming municipal polls. The order puts pressure on BMC and KMC commissioners to keep the exercise on track, with the next benchmark being the election schedule itself.
