To ensure error free electoral rolls, National Electoral Roll Purification and Authentication Programme was launched here on Tuesday.
Under this programme, the details of Elector’s Photo Identity Card (EPIC) would be linked with Aadhaar card data. The image quality of the electors would be improved, and errors would be corrected.
Electors can sent their Aadhaar card number through sms, e-mail, or at the Election Commission portalwww.eci.gov.in.
They can submit Form 8 for making corrections in name, address, or other details and Form 7 for removing multiple registrations in electoral rolls to Revenue Divisional Officers, Tahsildar, Municipality Commissioner or polling booth officer in person.
Electors can make corrections when officials are on a door-to-door survey.
Special camps will be conducted across the district for facilitating electors to carry out corrections on April 12, according to a release here.
