The Election Commission began a Special Intensive Revision of voter lists in 12 states earlier this month — with forms distributed to several crore people across the country. The electoral roll cleanup exercise is being led by tens of thousands of Booth Level Officers going house-to-house to distribute and collect enumeration forms. Voters in West Bengal can also complete the process online through a website run by the EC.

The details are available on the West Bengal ECI or CEO website as well as the ECINET app. Electors will have to log onto the portal and navigate to the ‘services’ section to find the relevant form. Clicking on the ‘Fill Enumeration Form’ option will redirect them to the page for inputting details.

Voters must have their mobile numbers linked to their EPIC or Electors Photo Identity Card in order to submit the online form. The 10-digit unique identification number is issued by the poll body to each registered voter. It is also used to verify identity during elections and access online voter services.
