Starting November 12, 17 states; including Tamil Nadu; will open a 30-day window for citizens to fix errors in voter lists. If your name got deleted during the recent purge (nearly 97 lakh names were removed in TN alone), now’s your chance to get it back; just file Form 6 by December 11. What’s surprising? Over 66 lakh people were struck off for changing residences. That’s not fraud; it’s life. And many may not even know they’re off the list. The EC is urging young voters especially to register online via voters.eci.gov.in or the ECINET app; with Aadhaar-based e-signature to make it easier. This isn’t just admin work. It’s democracy in action. If you’re 18+ and haven’t checked your voter status, do it now. Your vote might have vanished; and you wouldn’t even know.
