How to Audit Your Voter Registration for the 2026 Special Intensive Revision

The 2026 Special Intensive Revision (SIR) involves a comprehensive update of the Indian electoral roll through house-to-house verification by Booth Level Officers (BLOs). To ensure your right to vote remains active, it is essential to manually audit your registration status. This guide provides the technical steps to verify, correct, or contest your enrollment using official Election Commission of India (ECI) tools.

Step 1: Verify Your Enrollment Status

The first step is checking your current status on the ECI Voters' Service Portal or via the Electoral Search engine. You will need your 10-digit EPIC number located on your Voter ID card.

Search by EPIC number to retrieve your "Part Number" and "Serial Number." If your name does not appear, or is flagged with an "Objection," you must act immediately to prevent deletion under the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960. Absence during a BLO field visit can often lead to an "absentee" or "shifted" marker.

Step 2: Correct Data via Form 8

If your details—such as name, age, gender, or address—are incorrectly listed, you must submit Form 8 on the portal. Accurate gender and address mapping is critical for the upcoming constituency restructuring and reserved seat calculus.

To submit: Log in to the portal, select "Correction of Entries," and upload a scanned copy of your supporting documents (Aadhaar card, Passport, or recent Utility Bill). Ensure your mobile number is linked to your EPIC to receive real-time alerts regarding any future objections filed against your entry.

Step 3: Contest Wrongful Deletions via Form 7

If you discover that your name has been wrongfully proposed for deletion (often under the "shifted" or "deceased" category), you must file Form 7 on the Voters' Service Portal. The Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) is legally mandated to provide a notice before final deletion.

Provide current proof of residence and request a formal field verification. This manual check ensures that errors in the digital roll are corrected before the final publication of the 2026 baseline roll.
