Voters missing from SIR draft rolls can apply through Form 6 without fear of prosecution: Haryana CEO

Chandigarh, Nov 4 (UNI) Voters whose names are missing from draft electoral rolls during the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) can apply for inclusion through Form 6 even if they were registered earlier, and will not face legal action merely for submitting the form, Haryana Chief Electoral Officer A. Sreenivas said on Wednesday.
Sreenivas said the Election Commission of India, in a clarification issued on November 3, had stated that all eligible voters whose names did not appear in the draft electoral rolls could seek inclusion through Form 6 during or after the revision exercise, irrespective of their previous enrolment status.
The clarification addresses concerns among previously registered voters that submitting Form 6, which requires a declaration regarding first-time enrolment, could be treated as a false declaration and result in prosecution under Section 31 of the Representation of the People Act, 1950.
