Mizoram voter list revision: draft roll on Nov 30, claims till Dec 30

Mizoram's draft electoral rolls will be published on November 30, 2026, under a Special Summary Revision (SSR) announced by the Election Commission of India (ECI), The News Mill reported. Mizoram is one of six states and Union Territories included in this round of the exercise.

The revision uses January 1, 2027 as the qualifying date, which means people who turn 18 on or before that date can apply to be enrolled.

Key dates

• By November 20, 2026: rationalisation and rearrangement of polling stations
• November 30, 2026: publication of the draft electoral rolls
• November 30 to December 30, 2026: period for filing claims and objections
• By January 16, 2027: disposal of claims and objections
• January 21, 2027: publication of the final electoral rolls

Polling stations

Electoral registration officers will look at whether polling stations need to be created or rearranged. Each station is to stay within the limit of 1,200 electors unless the ECI gives prior approval for more.

Who can enrol

Officials have been told to try to bring every eligible citizen onto the rolls. That includes people already eligible but not registered, and young people who become eligible on January 1, 2027. Those who will turn 18 on the later qualifying dates of April 1, July 1 and October 1, 2027 can also apply in advance during the exercise.

District election officers will set up help desks and hold special enrolment drives. Recognised political parties will be brought in through meetings and other steps to get their cooperation.

The Commission has asked officials to give extra help to groups that are often left out, including women, transgender persons, Scheduled Tribes, Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups, senior citizens, persons with disabilities, the sick, the poor and other hard-to-reach voters, and to make sure they face no unnecessary hardship during the process.

If a claim is rejected

Under Section 24(a) of the Representation of the People Act, 1950, a decision of the electoral registration officer can be appealed before the district magistrate. A second appeal lies with the Chief Electoral Officer under Section 24(b), following Rule 27 of the Registration of Electors Rules, 1960.

How to check

Once the draft roll is out on November 30, voters in Mizoram can check their names with their booth level officer, at the local electoral registration office, or through the ECI's online voter services. Anyone whose name is missing, or whose details are wrong, can file a claim or correction before December 30.
