Uttar Pradesh voters, mark your calendars for February 22—the decisive day for the Election Commission’s voter list overhaul. As the special claims period peaks, every booth statewide transforms into a service hub from 10:30 AM to 1:30 PM.
Chief Electoral Officer Navdeep Rinwa announced this as the fourth installment after January drives on the 11th, 18th, and 31st. BLOs will facilitate checks against the January 6 draft list, distributing key forms: Form 6 for new voters, Form 6A for overseas citizens, Form 7 to strike names, and Form 8 for fixes.
On-site help desks, political party involvement, and volunteer support will streamline filings. Monitoring teams from district levels will ensure efficiency and transparency.
Why does this matter? Clean electoral rolls prevent disenfranchisement and fraud. With Uttar Pradesh’s voter base exceeding millions, precision is paramount. This campaign empowers citizens to claim their voice, fostering trust in the electoral process. Eligible residents, especially youth and migrants, should seize this opportunity before it closes.
