The Election Commission of India (ECI) has clarified that electors whose names do not appear in the draft roll will not face any action if they seek re-enrolment through Form 6.

According to the commission, such voters must apply afresh under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process or afterwards, even if they had been enrolled earlier.

The clarification means that previous enrolment will not prevent voters from submitting a new application for inclusion in the electoral roll if their names are missing from the draft list.
