This list will include the names of all registered voters in the state. Under the SIR process, voter data has been verified for the past three months. During this process, several amendments were made, and approximately 6.5 million names were removed from the draft voter list. This step was taken to remove names where discrepancies were found based on documents or information. Let's learn how to get someone's name added if it has been deleted from the final voter list.

How to get your name added

As elections in Bihar approach, people's eyes are on the voter list. Many voters often fear that their name may have been removed from the final voter list. There's no need to worry. The Election Commission of India (ECI) has clarified that if an eligible voter's name has been mistakenly removed, they can update their information in two ways.

Check on this website

First, it's important to check whether your name is on the final voter list. To do this, you can add your name online. Visit the website https://www.eci.gov.in or https://voters.eci.gov.in. Here, you can search by entering your EPIC number or name. You'll also need to select your district and assembly constituency. This will tell you whether your name is on the list.

How to Add Your Name Online

If you want to add your name online, the process is quite simple. Log in to the NVSP portal or download the Voter Helpline App. Next, go to the app or portal and fill out Form 6, the prescribed form for new voter registration or name addition. When filling out the form, you'll need to upload your personal information and the required documents.

After submitting your application, you'll receive a registration number, or application number, which allows you to track your application status online. This method is especially useful for those with a smartphone or computer and an internet connection.

How to Apply Offline

For those who can't apply online or prefer to do so offline, an offline method is available. Contact your area's Booth Level Officer. The BLO will provide you with Form 6, which you'll need to fill out and submit along with the required documents.

If you've previously obtained a voter card, you'll need to share that information as well. The BLO will collect all the documents and send them to the area's Election Officer. After checking and verifying the documents, you'll receive an acknowledgment of your application.
