Election Guide 2019: What if your name is missing in voters list?

NEW DELHI: Once a citizen is eligible to vote and has enrolled as a voter, a voter slip from the Election Commission will be issued which confirms the citizen's name on the voter list. This slip, along with a photo ID proof recognized by the Election Commission, can act as a voter card.
If the resident fails to get the voter slip, they can check online or call the helpline to find out. In order
to check if you have successfully enrolled yourself in the voter list, follow these steps:
Step 1: Visit The National Voters' Service portal — https://www.nvsp.in or National Voter Services Portal's Electoral Search page (NVSP).
Step 2: If you have the EPIC number then click on 'Search by EPIC number'. If not, then click on 'Search by details'.
If the page does not reflect your details after clicking on the search option, it means that your name is missing from the voter's list and you need to register again. If your name appears, you are eligible to vote.
To register as a voter, you have to fill in Form- 6 and submit it to the Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) of the Assembly Constituency and your name will be included in the electoral roll as a voter. One of the easiest ways to way to submit Form-6 is:
Online application
Step 1. Log on to www.eci.nic.in or Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) website the of the state where the new voter ordinarily resides. Click on tab 'Online Voter Registration'
Step 2. Sign up to obtain a username and password.
Step 3. Upload one passport size color photo in the space mentioned.
Step 4. Upload the proof of residence and age. In case you are unable to upload, the Booth Level Officer (BLO) may also collect the documents from your house.
The ECI has also launched a mobile app ' Voter Helpline' which helps citizens not only in finding names, submitting forms, checking status but also in filing complaints and receiving replies. All guidelines, forms, results, candidate affidavit, press notes, voter awareness are accessible to the user through the app.
You can go to the home page of the website of your state CEOs and click on tab 'Check your Name in the Voter’s List' or use SMS for checking your details. Type EPIC<SPACE>Voter ID No and sent to 9211728082.
