But now the names of 4 lakh 38 thousand voters may be removed from the new voter list. Bhopal District Deputy Electoral Officer Bhuvan Gupta said, “Till the last day of submission of SIR forms, mapping of 79 percent voters has been completed. While 20.6 percent i.e. 4 lakh 38 thousand voters have been found unconnectable.”
Draft will be published on January 23
Bhuvan Gupta told “The final draft of the voter list will be published on January 23. Those voters who will not participate in it can make claims and objections for it after January 23. Along with this, one lakh 13 thousand voters have been identified whose link to the voter list of 2003 was not found. These voters are also in the category of nine mappings. They will be heard individually.”
For this, notices will be issued to unmapping voters from December 19. Later their documents will be verified. After this their names will be included in the voter list.
Hearing of claims and objections will be held in all 85 wards
Bhuvan Gupta Said, “For the voters whose mapping has not been done, camps will be set up in different wards. BLOs will sit in all 85 wards, who will resolve the claims and objections. Along with this, a proposal to make 85 additional election registration officers has been sent to the Commission. They will hear the notices in all 85 wards.”
In this way new voters can get their names added
District Election Officer Kaushalendra Vikram Singh Said, “The final draft of the voter list will be released on January 23, along with it the round of claims and objections will also begin. During this time, the new voters as on January 1, 2026, can also apply for addition or amendment of their names. Our BLOs will sit in the booths during this period. At present, the names of 4 lakh 38 thousand voters are being deleted in the district.”
50 days time to submit citizenship
Deputy Election Officer Bhuvan Gupta “No notice will be sent to the people appearing in the list containing uncollectable sheets. After the publication of the draft voter list, if the names of such voters are not found in the list, then they will have to register themselves as new voters through Form 6,” the ED said.
