Why should you check your name in the Voter List 2025?

Wondering why you should check if your name is on the voter list? The Election Commission of India periodically updates the voter list. If it finds any discrepancies in details, the names of such voters are removed from the list. Some of the reasons for removal of name from voter list are:

• Death of the Voter
• Fake Voter Details
• Incorrect Particulars
• Change of Address/ No longer residing at the given address

If your name has been removed from the voter list due to any of the above reasons or by mistake, you cannot vote in the upcoming elections. It is therefore, vital for you to perform a regular voter list search. 

Apart from this, you should also check the presence of your name in the Voter list for the following reasons:

• Verify whether all details are correct and confirm that you are eligible to vote in the upcoming election process. 
• Prior checking also allows you to raise complaints or report an error (in case of any information inconsistency) to concerned authorities. This ensures the possibility of correction of your details before the election begins.
• Both the actions of making the Voter list available to the public and voters confirming their eligibility (by looking up their names in the list) should be done at least ten days before the election. This ensures errors are corrected as early as possible. Once voting is set to begin, changes are not permitted.
