Jharkhand Voter List: Check Unmapped Voters at Polling Stations Before Special Revision
A considerable number of people visited various polling stations across the state, including Ranchi, on Saturday to check the list of unmapped voters and confirm whether their names were included or not.
The office of the state’s chief electoral officer (CEO) had released the list containing names of voters whose mapping could not be completed in the run-up to the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the electoral roll, scheduled to begin in June.
CEO K Ravi Kumar said that the unmapped voter list will be displayed at all polling booths for the next two weeks from Saturday. Voters can visit their respective polling stations to review the list.
At some places, voters whose names appeared in the unmapped list shared their details and got their mapping done in the electoral roll through their respective booth level officers (BLOs).
Ashok Kumar Marianus Soy was among those who visited at Balika Siksha Bhawan High School in Lalpur here after failing to find online confirmation of his name’s mapping. He appeared relieved after finding that his name was not in the unmapped list.
Another resident, Prem Chand Brind, and his wife, from Peace Road, discovered that their names were not mapped despite being voters for a long time. Brind, who earlier performed election duty, said, “I have found out that my name does exist in any list.”
Jaya Pandey, BLO of one of the two booths at a school, said there was a good response in verifying mapping status.
