The Election Commission of India has published the draft electoral rolls following the Special Review (SSR) in 13 states and three union territories. This move marks a significant step in the ongoing process of updating voter records across the country.
Uttar Pradesh, the state with the largest voter population, is expected to release its draft roll on November 17. The publication of these lists allows for public scrutiny and objection before the final rolls are prepared.
In Bihar, the new list includes approximately 1.3 million additional electors compared to the roll after the earlier Special Intensive Revision (SIR). This indicates a substantial increase in registered voters in the state.
Conversely, Tamil Nadu’s voter count has risen to 57.7 million, although this figure remains lower than the total recorded prior to the revision process. The varying outcomes across states reflect the specific demographic changes and corrections identified during the review.
