SIR UP Voter List 2026: What to do if your name is not there in draft voter list

With 2.89 crore names deleted due to deaths, permanent migration or multiple registrations, the state recorded the highest number of deletions (18.7%). Tamil Nadu (15%) and Gujarat (14.5%) ranked second and third, respectively, according to the states’ draft rolls published earlier this month.

What to do if your name is not on the list?

If your name has been excluded from the draft electoral roll, you can fill up Form 6 online again. To make corrections in entries, you can fill up Form 8.

You can submit these forms either online at voters.eci.gov.in or the ECINET app. The offline mode would require you to pay a visit to the booth level officer (BLO).

The claims and objections window will remain open from January 6 to February 6.

Last month, UP CEO Rinwa was quoted as saying by news agency PTI: “Untraceable or missing voters who figure among the deleted, would need to show proof of inclusion in the 2003 SIR list or any of the ECI prescribed documents for getting names added to the voters’ list.”
