The Directorate of Electoral Rolls for Udupi District announced that the first stage of the electoral roll review will begin on 20 June. The initiative follows recommendations from the latest census to update voter details.
The review process involves cross‑checking existing records with updated population data, while the subsequent door‑to‑door verification scheduled from 30 June will allow election officials to confirm residents' addresses and identity cards. The stage aims to eliminate duplicate entries and correct mismatched names, ensuring a reliable voter list for the forthcoming elections.
A comprehensive audit is expected to reduce voter fraud risks and increase the integrity of elections in the region. Residents who fail to rectify discrepancies may face disenfranchisement. Source: Google News – Udupi District.
