In a bid to simplify the procedure of correcting ones name and address in voters list, the district election office had put up drop boxes where people can submit their Form 7 with the correction. The facility, which will continue till the end of this month, can also be used to omit names of deceased family member, include a new voters and delete repeated names from the voters list.

“It is the voter’s responsibility to come forward if he or she wants to make any correction. But as people become quite apathetic when it come to following the procedure, we came up with this idea,” said District Deputy Election Officer Apurva Wankhede.
