Lucknow, Oct. 5 -- Months after the final electoral rolls published on April 10 under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process showed the deletion of 20.4 million (2.04 crore) names in Uttar Pradesh, the state is likely to witness another revision of the voter list ahead of the assembly elections, due in February-March. This will offer an opportunity to update and correct the rolls. According to people familiar with the matter, the Election Commission of India is likely to launch this Special Summary Revision (SSR) in Uttar Pradesh in October/November. No specific date for the launch has been announced. Already, the poll panel's special 'no voter to be left behind' campaign has been launched even as political parties have demanded the enrolment of missing voters as well as young eligible voters. Under this special drive, the ECI stated that the requirement of a declaration form along with Form 6 (for enrolment as a voter) mapping themselves or their parents to the 2003 base rolls has been scrapped. The move comes following recent reports of differences within the EC over including this additional declaration in the online Form 6. Uttar Pradesh chief electoral officer Navdeep Rinwa said any eligible citizen can apply by filling out Form-6 online through the Election Commission of India's Citizen Service Portal (voters.eci.gov.in) or the ECINET Mobile App. "They can also fill out Form-6 offline and submit it along with the required documents to their BLO/assistant electoral registration officer/electoral registration officer," he said. "Eligible citizens are required to complete all their entries accurately and without errors," he said. After the SIR ended in April, ECI had announced the ongoing continuous revision of electoral rolls will be implemented. Under this revision, all district election officers have been instructed to specifically include the names of eligible youth, missed voters, first-time voters, homeless voters, disabled voters, and women in the voter list, Rinwa said. After the SIR process concluded in April in Uttar Pradesh, the final electoral rolls had 133.9 million (13.39 crore) voters, shrinking by 13.24%, compared to 154.4 million (15.44 crore) voters listed in the electoral rolls published on October 27, 2025, after a special summary revision. After the SIR, the final voter list in UP had 133,984,792 voters including 73,071,061 (54.54%) male voters, 60,909,525 (45.46%) female voters and 4,206 (0.01%) third gender voters. There were 1,763,360 (1.32%) first time voters in the age group of 18-19 years. The SIR process in UP had resulted in the deletion of more women voters than men following which several complaints were submitted to the ECI. Women voters said their names were included first in the voter list at their father's address and then at the in-laws' address after marriage. Because these women were registered at two different addresses, they were viewed as "duplicate" or "shifted" voters and their names were deleted. The gender ratio had declined from 877 (the 2025 voter list) to 834 women voters (final electoral rolls) per 1000 male voters after the SIR final rolls were out. The ECI directed the Uttar Pradesh CEO to include the names of the missing eligible women voters in the electoral rolls. "To achieve the objective of "no voter to be left behind," all district election officers have been directed to include 100% of eligible citizens in the voter list," the CEO said. Under the claims and objection phase, the ECI issued directions for submitting Form-6 for voter enrolment, Form -7 for deletion of names and Form 8 for shifting of residence and correction of entries in existing electoral rolls. During the SIR process the ECI published the draft rolls on January 6 this year, listing 125.5 million (12.55 crore) voters. The ECI flagged 32.6 million (3.26 crore) voters for notices. Among them were 10.4 million voters to whom notices were issued due to non-mapping with the 2003 SIR. In addition, notices were also issued to 22.2 million voters in whose forms logical discrepancies were detected during the enumeration phase....
