In a major push ahead of next year’s polls, UP’s Chief Electoral Officer announced that over 99.48% of enumeration forms (for updating voter lists) have been delivered across the state’s 15.44 crore registered voters. The deadline for submission is December 4, with the draft list due December 9 and final list on February 7. Citizens can also submit details online — already 90,000+ have done so. Political parties are being asked to assign booth-agents and help ensure accuracy.
Why it matters: With assembly elections around the corner in UP, a clean, accurate voter list is vital for fairness and legitimacy. This drive signals that the election machinery is getting ready — and that every eligible citizen should participate.
