BLO contact West Bengal: Many citizens in Bengal, especially working professionals and frequent travellers, are worried about missing the Booth Level Officer’s (BLO) visit for voter verification.
There is a common misconception that being absent during the BLO’s door-to-door verification could lead to one’s name being deleted from the rolls. However, according to the Election Commission of India (ECI), BLOs are required to make at least three repeat visits to ensure no eligible voter is left out. The BLO is your key point of contact for voter registration, verification, or correction during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls across the state.
Each enumeration form distributed by the BLO carries the officer’s name and phone number.

Citizens can also proactively contact their assigned BLO for clarification, corrections, or updates regarding the SIR process.
How to reach or verify your BLO:
Wait for the BLO’s visit
The BLO is required to visit each household as part of the enumeration drive and carries an official identity card with a QR code. You can scan the code to verify the officer’s credentials on the ECI website. If you are not home during the first visit, the BLO must make up to three repeat visits. You can then reach out directly using the contact details printed on your enumeration form.
Search online using your Voter ID (EPIC)
You can find your BLO’s details on the official ECI and CEO West Bengal websites:
Click on “Find Your Name on the Electoral Roll” or visit the Voters’ Services Portal: https://voters.eci.gov.in/
Choose the Search by EPIC (Voter ID) option and enter your details.
Once your voter details appear, scroll to view contact information for your District Election Officer (DEO), Electoral Registration Officer (ERO), and your assigned BLO.
Use the voter helpline
For general inquiries or to report issues related to SIR, call the ECI’s toll-free helpline 1950, which connects you to the district contact centre for electoral services.
After you fill the form
When you fill out your enumeration forms, ensure your BLO returns one countersigned copy with the official stamp. This serves as your receipt and proof of submission for future reference.
Officials said that citizens’ cooperation during the SIR is crucial to ensure the accuracy of the state’s voter rolls and to prevent last-minute issues ahead of elections.
