Chandigarh, November 12, 2026: The draft electoral rolls for all 117 Assembly constituencies in Punjab were published on Thursday under the Special Summary Revision (SSR) 2027, beginning the process for voters to check their details, enrol their names or seek corrections.
The claims and objections period will remain open from November 12 to December 11, 2026. The disposal of claims and objections will be completed by December 28, while the final electoral rolls will be published on January 4, 2027.
Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), Punjab, Anindita Mitra, chaired a meeting with representatives of recognised political parties on Thursday and handed over copies of the Integrated Draft Electoral Roll. The representatives were also briefed on the revision process, important deadlines and procedures for electoral services.
Under the prescribed process, Form 6 can be used to apply for inclusion of a name in the electoral roll, Form 6A for enrolment as an overseas elector, Form 7 for seeking deletion of a name, and Form 8 for corrections in existing entries or shifting of residence.
Mitra said citizens who will attain the age of 18 years on or before January 1, 2027, are eligible to enrol as voters.
She also informed political party representatives about digital facilities available to citizens, including the Voters’ Service Portal and the ‘Book a Call Request with BLO’ facility.
Special camps will be organised across Punjab to help voters access electoral services. Help desks have also been set up at the offices of District Election Officers (DEOs) and Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) to assist citizens in checking the draft rolls and submitting applications.
Voters can verify their names and other details in the draft electoral rolls through the CEO Punjab website at www.ceopunjab.gov.in or the Election Commission of India’s Voters’ Service Portal at voters.eci.gov.in.
Eligible citizens seeking enrolment or corrections can submit their claims and objections using the prescribed forms during the November 12–December 11 period.
For assistance, citizens can contact the Voter Helpline at 1950 or use the ‘Book a Call Request with BLO’ facility through the ECINET mobile application.
The CEO appealed to all eligible citizens to ensure their names are included in the electoral rolls, stating that every eligible voter should be covered in the revision exercise.
