Nashik Voter List 2026: How to Check Your Name and Register for Municipal Elections
As Nashik prepares for municipal elections in 2026, every eligible resident should confirm their registration and ensure their name appears on the voter list to exercise their right to vote. This guide explains how to check whether your name is on the Nashik electoral roll, how to register or correct details if needed, and practical steps to complete the process before polling day.
Who is eligible to appear on the Nashik voter list?
Any Indian citizen who is a resident of Nashik municipal limits and has attained 18 years of age on the qualifying date is eligible to be included on the electoral roll. Eligibility requires valid identity and residence details; non-residents or those registered elsewhere must update their address or re-register as appropriate.
How to check your name on the Nashik voter list
There are multiple official and convenient ways to check whether your name appears on the Nashik electoral roll:
- Search the electoral roll online using the state Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Maharashtra portal by entering your name, EPIC (voter ID) number, or other demographic details.
- Use the Election Commission of India’s Voter Services or the Voter Helpline mobile app to search the electoral roll and view your polling station details.
- Visit your local municipal election office or designated voter facilitation center in Nashik to request a manual search of the rolls and obtain a printed copy of the relevant part of the list.
If you find your name, note your EPIC number, polling station, and serial number in the roll—these details are needed on polling day and help with any corrections.
How to register if your name is not on the list
If your name is not on the Nashik voter list, you must apply for inclusion using the standard procedure for new voters. Typical steps include:
- Filling Form 6 (application for inclusion of name in the electoral roll) online via the CEO Maharashtra website or the national voter-registration portal, or obtaining and submitting a physical form at your local electoral office.
- Providing required documents: proof of age (for first-time voters), proof of identity, and proof of residence in Nashik municipal limits. Common documents include Aadhaar, passport, driving license, ration card, or utility bills bearing your name and local address.
- Uploading scanned copies of documents if applying online, or submitting photocopies when applying in person. Retain a receipt or reference number after submission to track the application status.
After submission, the application will be verified by the electoral registration officer. Once accepted, your name will be included in the next update of the electoral roll; applicants should follow up using the reference ID to confirm inclusion.
How to correct details or transfer your registration
If your details on the voter list are incorrect (name spelling, address, polling station) or you need to shift your registration within Nashik or from another constituency, use the prescribed correction and shifting forms:
- Form 8 is used for corrections, shifting residence within the same assembly/municipal area, and duplicate EPIC requests.
- Follow the same submission and document-verification steps as for new registrations, either online or at the local electoral office.
Timely corrections are important because discrepancies can lead to difficulties at the polling station. Check the updated draft roll after corrections are processed to verify changes.
Important timelines and practical tips
Municipal election schedules set qualifying dates and deadlines for roll revision; watch for public notices from the Nashik municipal corporation and the CEO Maharashtra office announcing draft roll publication and final cut-off dates. Act early—applications submitted close to the deadline may not be processed in time.
- Start the process well before the election notification to allow time for verification and inclusion in the roll.
- Keep digital and physical copies of all documents and the application reference number for follow-up.
- If you face delays or have queries, contact your local electoral registration officer or visit the designated voter help center in Nashik for assistance.
- Senior citizens, persons with disabilities, and voters with mobility constraints can request special facilities or place their needs on record with the electoral office for appropriate arrangements on polling day.
What to carry to the polling station
On election day, bring a valid voter identification document—commonly the EPIC (voter ID card) or another accepted photo ID—to the polling station listed on the electoral roll. Check the voter slip or the online entry for your assigned polling booth and timing to avoid confusion.
Final note
Verifying your entry on the Nashik voter list and completing any necessary registration or corrections are straightforward but time-sensitive steps. Use the online portals or local electoral offices to confirm your status, submit the correct form with supporting documents, and track your application so you can participate in the Nashik municipal elections without last-minute issues.
