Manipur publishes Draft Electoral Rolls; claims & objections open till Dec 11

Imphal, Nov 12 (UNI) The Office of the Chief Electoral Officer, Manipur, on Thursday published the Draft Photo Electoral Rolls for all 60 Assembly Constituencies as part of the Special Summary Revision with January 1, 2027 as the qualifying date.
The rolls were published by the respective Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) in line with Election Commission of India instructions dated October 15, 2026, said B Lokeshor, JT CEO, during a press meet.
The draft rolls list 19,94,357 electors in total, comprising 9,69,298 males, 10,24,735 females and 324 third gender electors. The Elector-Population ratio stands at 52.9 and the gender ratio at 1,057.
Electors can verify their details at the offices of the ERO or Assistant ERO, or with their Booth Level Officer (BLO). The rolls can also be downloaded from the CEO Manipur website, ceomanipur.nic.in.
Claims and objections can be filed from November 12 to December 11, 2026, and will be disposed of by December 28. The final electoral rolls will be published on January 4, 2027.
During the claims period, claims will also be accepted for the three subsequent qualifying dates of April 1, July 1 and October 1, 2027. New enrolment is to be sought through Form 6 or 6A, while objections to a proposed inclusion or deletion go in Form 7. Form 8 is meant for shifting of residence, corrections in entries, replacement of EPIC or marking of persons with disabilities.
Applications can be submitted physically to the ERO, AERO or BLO. Electors are also encouraged to apply online through the Voter Service Portal (voters.eci.gov.in) or the ECINET app, with applications signed electronically using Aadhaar-enabled e-sign.
Help desks have been set up in all 16 districts to assist enrolment, particularly of vulnerable and marginalised persons. Voters can call the ECI helpline 1950 or use the "Book a Call with BLO" feature on the ECINET app to seek guidance from their BLOs.
The lists of claims and objections in Forms 9, 10, 11, 11A and 11B will be displayed on ERO notice boards and uploaded to the CEO's website. Anyone wishing to object to a claim in the list may file it before the concerned ERO.
A meeting with recognised national and state political parties was held today, where they were briefed on the revision schedule and asked to appoint Booth Level Agents for every polling station to coordinate with BLOs. Each party was given one printed copy and one soft copy, without photos, of the draft roll of every Assembly Constituency, free of cost.
Decisions of EROs can be appealed before the District Magistrate under Section 24(a) of the Representation of the People Act, 1950. A second appeal against the District Magistrate's decision lies with the Chief Electoral Officer, Manipur, under Section 24(b), as prescribed in Rule 27 of the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960.
All eligible citizens have been urged to come forward, enrol their names and take an active part in the revision.
