EC Clarifies No Separate Draft Roll Omission List

Why in the News?

The Election Commission (EC) informed the Supreme Court that it is not legally required to prepare or share a separate list of names missing from draft electoral rolls, responding to a plea by Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR).

EC’s Stand on Draft Electoral Rolls:

● Law Position: Under the Representation of the People Act, 1950 and Registration of Electors Rules (RER), 1960, EC must publish draft rolls but is not mandated to create a separate missing voters list.

● No Separate Inquiry: Names from enumeration forms were added without reservation; no specific omission list was prepared.

● Form 6 Inclusion: Individuals missing from the draft (published on August 1, 2025) can apply under Form 6 with Annexure-D during the claims and objections period (Aug 1 – Sep 1, 2025).

Political Parties & Public Accessibility

● Obligations Met: Draft rolls made available for public inspection; copies given to recognised political parties.

● Updated Lists: Political parties received names not included to enable outreach.

● Booth-Level Meetings: BLOs and BLAs met on Aug 7; omission lists were read aloud and appeals made to ensure inclusion.

 

About the Draft Electoral Roll Process:

● Rule 10 (RER, 1960): Draft rolls displayed for public inspection outside the Electoral Registration Officer’s office.

● Rule 11: Copies supplied to recognised political parties; no mandate for a separate omission list.

● Claims & Objections: Citizens can file claims within the notified period to be added to the final roll.

● Purpose: Ensures accuracy and inclusivity in voter lists while following due legal process.
