After Bihar, Jharkhand is set to begin an intensive voter revision drive aimed at cleansing and updating the state's electoral rolls.
Acting on the Election Commission of India's (ECI) directive, the office of the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) has completed preliminary preparations for the campaign, which will freshly identify all eligible voters across the state.
Chief Electoral Officer K Ravi Kumar said the pre-revision activity has been completed in accordance with the ECI's June 2024 guidelines. "Polling booths have been rationalised so that each covers about 1,200 voters within a two-kilometre radius. Mapping work has also been completed using cadastral references," he said. The next phase will involve voter identification and verification, for which the state is awaiting further instructions from the Commission.
