Revision of Electoral Roll: PMC sets up electoral registration desk in 15 ward offices

“All the necessary procedures can be done through the website <www.nvsp.in&gt;. It is the most convenient method to do it sitting at home. The action on the request can also be tracked and e-voter identity cards can also be downloaded through the system,” said Ajeet Deshmukh, in-charge of the PMC election department on Wednesday. The revision of the electoral roll will continue until November 30.

Deshmukh convened a meeting of political leaders of the civic body on Tuesday and asked them to encourage citizens to enroll themselves in the electoral roll.

PMC elections are slated in the next few months as the term of the existing general body ends on February 15. The state election commission has already directed the PMC to complete the delimitation of the electoral panel as per the state government’s decision to constitute a three-member electoral panel to elect 173 corporators to the PMC.

The draft delimitation has to be submitted by the PMC to the state election commission by November 30. The state government has recently extended the boundaries of the PMC, making it the largest civic body in the state, increasing its strength of corporators from 162 to 173 for the next five-year term.
