Those who had applied for inclusion of there name in the voter list in the last month can check the status at their respective Corporation Zonal Offices.

Please ensure you take the acknowledgement slip with you and also preferrably information about the “part no.”
Part No. is the booklet in which the voter list for your area/street is given.You can find it in the Election Commission Website.

An interesting fact comes out when we analyse the Electoral Rolls in Tamil Nadu.

Surprisingly when more people must be part of the Electoral Rolls, given the fact that our state & country is seeing increasing population levels, the actual no. of voters has reduced in the state since the last Parliamentary Elections.

Elector Details in 2004

NOTE: Due to delimitation excercise, the gegraphical boundaries of some of the constituencies have undergone major changes.

There is a marked decrease in the voter count in the constituencies in Chennai and surrounding Districts – the main factor can be attributed to Delimitation excercise. But that doesnot explain how this time we have around 60Lakh LESS voters in the state than in 2004.

This raises a few questions:
a. Where the Electoral Rolls in 2004 rigged with huge no. of fake voters?
b. Or, Is it that this time around, the Voter List excludes Genuine Voters?

This question can be answered by comparing the voter list of a constituency with other databases available with the Government like the Ration Card
