New Voters Must Provide Parents' SIR Details to Get on Electoral Rolls: Election Commission
The Election Commission has made it mandatory for new voters applying online through Form 6 to declare whether they or their parents were included in the last Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls, requiring details such as constituency and polling station.
This declaration appears only in the online Form 6 via the ECINET portal and not in the offline statutory form, and applicants cannot submit their forms online without completing this section.
The declaration was first introduced in Bihar's Special Intensive Revision in June last year and applies to states and Union Territories where the revision has been completed or is underway, excluding Assam and Bihar.
