Each voter will receive two forms. One copy will remain with the voter while the other, after being filled up, will be submitted to the block-level officer. Voters can also download the forms, fill them up and upload them online to track the process and status.

Around 45,255 BLOs will conduct the door-to-door exercise. As many as 33,026 booth-level agents, appointed with approval of political parties, will assist them.

The draft voter list will be published on July 5. Complaints can be lodged between July 5 and August 4. All complaints will be addressed by September 2 and the final list will be published on September 6.
