Election Commission's ERONET and ECINet Systems Central to Voter Roll Management Debate
ERONET is the Election Commission of India's centralized system for managing the voter database, processing applications for registration, migration, correction, and deletion. ECINet, launched in January 2026, is a broader platform integrating over 40 election-related applications, including ERONET. Concerns were raised by two Election Commissioners about the centralization of the electoral roll database and control over it by state officials. However, ERONET supports Electoral Registration Officers, who retain statutory authority over voter list decisions under the Representation of the People Act, 1950.
