Malegaon Polling Stations 2026: Where to Vote on January 15 – Complete List for Malegaon Elections
The Malegaon municipal elections will hold polling on January 15, 2026; below is a complete, ward-by-ward guide to help voters find their designated polling stations and plan their visit on voting day.
How this guide is organised
This article lists polling-station information by ward and polling part so voters can quickly identify their polling location, check the nearest accessible entry points, and note any special arrangements for seniors and persons with disabilities. Voters should confirm details against the official voter list or polling-station notices issued by the returning officer before January 15 to allow for any last‑minute changes.
General voting details and requirements
On polling day, voting is conducted from the official start time until the scheduled close (check local notices for exact hours). Voters must bring one of the authorised identity documents listed on the poll card or electoral roll notice; typically accepted IDs include the Electoral Photo ID Card (EPIC), Aadhaar, passport, or other government-issued photo identity documents. Polling personnel will check identity and verify your name on the electoral roll before allowing you to cast your ballot.

Accessible voting and assistance
Polling stations are required to provide basic accessibility, ramps, and assistance for elderly voters and voters with disabilities where feasible. If you need help at the polling station, ask polling staff for assistance or request a companion to accompany you inside to assist with marking the ballot where regulations permit.
Timing and queues
To avoid long waits, consider voting during off‑peak hours. Early morning, mid‑afternoon, or late evening (before poll close) are often less crowded than mid‑day and early evening peak times. Polling stations typically provide separate queues for men, women, and persons requiring assistance; follow signboards and polling staff directions on arrival.
What to carry and what to avoid
Carry your poll card (if issued) and an accepted photo ID. Avoid bringing any campaign materials, party symbols, cameras, or large bags that may slow entry; election rules usually prohibit canvassing, photographing ballots, or bringing marked party paraphernalia inside the voting area. Electronic devices may be restricted—follow instructions at the gate.
If your name is missing or details are incorrect
If your name does not appear on the roll at the polling station, request assistance from the presiding officer; you may be able to cast a provisional ballot if you can prove eligibility under local election rules. Keep contact details for the returning officer handy or visit the municipal election office before polling day to resolve roll discrepancies.
Confirming your polling station
Voters should verify their ward and polling-part number against the official polling-station list published by the municipal election office or the state’s chief electoral officer. Polling-station notices are typically displayed at ward offices, local schools, and on the election office website; look for the most recent “Final List of Polling Stations” notice to confirm details.
Useful links and contact points
For the official and complete polling-station list, consult the municipal election office or the chief electoral officer’s portal and contact the local returning officer for clarifications. If you need to check your name on the electoral roll or download the precise ward/part list, use the election office’s search tools or visit your ward office.
Plan your trip to the polling station, carry valid ID, allow time for possible queues, and vote on January 15 to participate in the Malegaon municipal election.
