How to Download the Electoral Roll (Voter List) PDF

The portal offers different versions of the roll, pick the right one:

• Draft Roll: a provisional list published for public inspection, so people can file claims, corrections, or objections before it’s finalised. During a Special Intensive Revision (SIR), this is the one to check to confirm your name survived the revision.
• Final Roll: the verified, official list published after all Form 6 (additions), Form 7 (deletions), and Form 8 (corrections) are processed. This is the roll used on election day.

If you’re checking around a revision or election, download the latest version available for your state, the portal labels each with its year and type.

Find it in a minute using Electoral Search:

1. Go to electoralsearch.eci.gov.in and open Search by Details (or Search by EPIC if you have your EPIC number).
2. Enter your details, state, district, and constituency, and the captcha, then Search.
3. Your result shows your Part Number and Part Serial Number, note both. The part number tells you which PDF to download; the serial number helps you jump straight to your entry inside it.

1. Open the Download Electoral Roll service on voters.eci.gov.in.
2. Select your State and the Year of Revision (e.g. 2026).
3. Once the state loads, choose the Roll Type (SIR Draft Roll, SIR Final Roll, etc.), then your District, Assembly Constituency, and Language.
4. A list of Parts (booths) appears. Find your Part Number and tick the checkbox next to it, you can tick several to download in bulk.
5. Enter the captcha (there’s a refresh and an audio option if it’s hard to read) and click Download Selected PDFs.
6. The PDF saves to your device, one file per selected part.

Each roll PDF is booth-wise and lists, for every voter in that part: part serial number, name, father’s or husband’s name, house number, age, gender, and the EPIC number (photos appear where available). At the top you’ll also find the polling station name and address for that booth.

A single part can have 500 to 1,000+ names, don’t scroll the whole thing:

• If the PDF is text-searchable, use Ctrl+F (or your PDF app’s search) and type your name or EPIC number.
• Otherwise, jump straight to your Part Serial Number (the one you noted from Electoral Search), entries are ordered by it.
• Cross-check the spelling, age, and relative’s name against your records while you’re there, catching an error now is easier than at the polling booth.

• Name missing entirely: if you were dropped during a revision or never registered, file Form 6 for inclusion.
• Details wrong (spelling, age, address): correct them with Form 8.
• A duplicate or a deceased/shifted voter listed: that’s a Form 7 (objection/deletion) matter.
• Not sure why you’re missing: contact your Booth Level Officer (BLO) or call the voter helpline on 1950. During a draft-roll period, file your claim before the objection deadline for your state.

SIR stands for Special Intensive Revision, a big clean-up of the voter list the Election Commission runs state by state. Booth officers go door to door, verify everyone, and remove entries that are duplicate, shifted, or of people who have passed away. Because names can get dropped in this process, downloading the draft roll and checking that you’re still on it matters more than usual.

Here’s the simple version of how it flows:

• Draft roll is published, this is your cue to check your name.
• Claims & objections window opens, if you’re missing or an entry is wrong, this is when you file Form 6, 7, or 8. There’s a deadline, and it’s easy to miss.
• Final roll is published, the verified list used at the election.

Deadlines differ by state and the Commission often extends them, so don’t rely on a date you saw somewhere. Check the current dates on your own state’s Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) website, and if in doubt, call 1950. The key thing: if your name is missing from the draft, act within the claims window, don’t wait for the final roll.
