**Headline:** Election Commission Removes 52 Lakh Names from Bihar Electoral Rolls During Revision Process
The Election Commission announced on Tuesday that a total of 52 lakh names have been removed from the electoral rolls in Bihar as part of the ongoing revision process. This significant update includes 18 lakh deceased voters, 26 lakh individuals who have relocated to different constituencies, and 7 lakh voters registered in multiple locations.
In a statement, the Election Commission emphasized that efforts are being intensified to ensure that all eligible voters are included in the draft electoral roll, which is set to be published on August 1, 2025. This initiative comes amid concerns raised by the Opposition regarding the potential exclusion of voters, which has led to disputes and legal challenges. The Commission has reassured the public that there will be ample opportunity for corrections and inclusions.
To facilitate this process, nearly 1 lakh Booth Level Officers (BLOs), 4 lakh volunteers, and 1.5 lakh Booth Level Agents (BLAs) from 12 political parties are actively participating. The Commission is also reaching out to voters who have not submitted their Enumeration Forms or who could not be located at their registered addresses.
Chief Electoral Officers, District Election Officers, Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), and Booth Level Officers have conducted meetings with political parties to share the lists of 21.36 lakh voters whose forms are still outstanding. According to the SIR order dated June 24, 2025, the public will have a full month, from August 1 to September 1, 2025, to file objections regarding any additions, deletions, or corrections in the Draft Electoral Rolls.
The final electoral roll is expected to be published on September 30, following the completion of the entire revision process.
