Maharashtra Assembly Elections 2024 | How to look for your name on the electoral list

Polling for the 288 member Legislative Assembly of Maharashtra will be held on November 20 and votes will be counted on November 23.

The BJP aims to retain power in the state with allies Shiv Sena, led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, and the NCP led by Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar.

The BJP-led Mahayuti alliance is facing a challenge from the Maha Vikas Aghadi coalition of the Congress-NCP(SP)-Shiv Sena (UBT), which hopes to repeat its performance in the Lok Sabha elections.

Meanwhile, it is imperative for electors to practice their right to vote. With this in mind, here are two ways you can check your name on the electoral rolls.

EPIC number method

If you have your Voter ID, you can use the EPIC (Electoral Photo ID Card) number on the card. The EPIC number is an alphanumerical code on the front of the card and is printed in bold characters.

With this, all you need to do is visit the electoral search page and select the "Search by EPIC" option. Enter the EPIC number, your state, and the captcha at the bottom.

If your name is on the electoral roll, the details of your district and Assembly constituency will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

General information method

If you do not have your Voter ID or EPIC number, you can use the general information you have to locate your name on the electoral rolls.

Go to the Electoral search page and select the "Search by Details" method. Put your name, age, state, district, and enter the captcha.

If your name is on the electoral rolls, the details will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Assembly Elections 2024 | The Maharashtra Assembly polls will take place against the backdrop of a fractured political landscape in the western state where the Shiv Sena and NCP will be going up against the Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar factions, even as the BJP and Congress try to make their mark. Meanwhile, in Jharkhand, the JMM faces a new challenge after Hemant Soren's recent arrest and Champai, a longstanding party member, joining the BJP. The Haryana election resulted in a shock loss for Congress, which was looking to galvanize on the Lok Sabha poll performance, while J&K also saw the grand old party eventually stepping away from the cabinet, with Omar Abdullah's JKNC forming government. It remains to be seen if the upcoming polls help BJP cement its position further or provide a fillip to I.N.D.I.A.
