Aurangabad Voter List 2026: How to Check Your Name and Register for Municipal Elections
The Aurangabad voter list for 2026 is being prepared and published in stages; voters can check their names online or through local election offices and can register, update details, or raise objections ahead of municipal elections to ensure they are eligible to vote.
Where to find the Aurangabad voter list
Draft and final electoral rolls for Aurangabad-related constituencies are published by state and national election authorities and are accessible through official portals and district election offices. The Chief Electoral Officer of Maharashtra and the Election Commission of India publish constituency-wise and district-wise rolls, including draft lists for graduate or special constituencies where applicable. Local district or municipal election offices also post notices and PDF parts of the roll for public inspection.
Steps to check your name online
1. Visit the official voter roll download or services portal maintained by the Election Commission of India or the Maharashtra CEO, where state and constituency rolls can be downloaded as PDFs.
2. On the portal, select the state (Maharashtra) and the appropriate district or constituency (Aurangabad or the specific municipal ward) and download the draft or final roll in PDF form.
3. Open the downloaded PDF and search for your name using the PDF viewer’s find/search function, or locate your part/ward number and search alphabetically through the voters listed there.
4. If available, use the Voter Services portal to search by name, EPIC (Electoral Photo Identity Card) number, or other personal details for a quicker lookup and to view your entry details.
How to register if your name is missing
1. Determine the correct form: For first-time registration, standard Form 6 (or the local equivalent used by the state) is generally required; for corrections or changes in particulars, other forms such as Form 8 or Form 7 may be used depending on the request.
2. Online application: Use the state CEO’s online voter registration service or the National Voter Services portal to submit your application. Provide required identity and residence proofs, upload scanned documents where requested, and submit the form electronically.
3. Offline application: Obtain the prescribed form from the local electoral registration office, municipal office, or a designated booth-level officer. Complete the form, attach copies of supporting documents (ID, address proof, age proof if required), and submit it in person.
4. Verification and inclusion: After submission, the electoral office will verify the application and supporting documents. If accepted, your name will be included in the subsequent revision of the electoral roll; you will be notified of the inclusion and may receive an EPIC if not already issued.
How to update details or transfer your registration
If you have changed address, marital status, name, or other particulars, submit the relevant correction/transfer form online or at your local election office. Transfers between assembly or municipal wards require submission of the transfer form along with fresh address proof; corrections to spelling, date of birth, or family details typically use the designated modification form and supporting documents.
How to raise objections or claim corrections on draft rolls
When draft rolls are published, authorities give a window during which electors can object to entries they believe are incorrect or can apply to include missing names. To object, lodge the prescribed objection form or follow the online procedure on the state CEO’s portal; provide reasons and evidence supporting the objection. Similarly, claims to add a missing name use the regular registration form but will be processed in the revision cycle and considered together with objections.
Where to get help locally
Your municipal election office, district election office, or the designated Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) are primary contact points for queries, assistance with forms, and document verification. Booth-level officers and voter facilitation centers also assist with searches, form submission, and status updates. Keep a record of application acknowledgements or reference numbers issued at the time of submission.
Practical tips
- Check draft lists promptly when published to allow time for corrections or claims.
- Keep soft and hard copies of ID and address documents ready before applying.
- Note your EPIC number and part/ward details once found; they are useful at the polling station and for future searches.
- If you apply online, save the acknowledgment or reference number; if offline, obtain a stamped receipt.
Ensuring your name appears on the Aurangabad voter list ahead of municipal elections requires timely checking of published rolls, submitting the correct forms with supporting documents, and following up with local electoral officers when necessary. Acting early during the draft publication window is the best way to resolve issues before the final roll is sealed.
