Quotes
Dr Indu Rani Jakhar
Palghar District Collector and District Election Officer
“Voters should not panic if their name is missing from the draft electoral roll. This is not the final electoral roll, and eligible voters have an opportunity to file claims and objections. Every citizen should carefully verify the name, address, age, photograph, EPIC number and polling station details of themselves and all eligible members of their family. If any error or omission is found, voters should submit the prescribed application without waiting until the last date.”
