Election Commission Clarifies Form 6 Submission for Previously Enrolled Voters Missing from Draft Rolls

Election Commission Clarifies Form 6 Submission for Previously Enrolled Voters Missing from Draft RollsPreviousNext

The Election Commission of India (ECI) has clarified that voters previously enrolled but missing from draft electoral rolls during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) can submit Form 6 to seek inclusion in the final list. Submitting Form 6 in such cases is not considered a false declaration and will not attract action under Section 31 of the Representation of the People Act, 1950, provided the voter is not enrolled elsewhere. This follows a Delhi High Court ruling and aims to address voter concerns and ensure inclusion.
