Early Times Report
JAMMU, Apr 1: Jammu and Kashmir State Election Commissioner, Shantmanu, today convened a meeting with the Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), Assistant Electoral Registration Officers (AEROs) and Panchayat Block Electoral Officers (PBEOs) to review the ongoing revision of the Panchayat Electoral Rolls, 2026.
The revision process was initiated on 27 March 2026 with the release of the draft electoral roll, inviting claims and objections for new enrolments, deletions or transfers of voters across the Union Territory.
The Election Commissioner emphasised house-to-house outreach by the field staff to ensure all eligible voters who turn 18 years by the cut off date of 1 April 2026 are enrolled in the Panchayat Electoral Roll.
The last date for filing claims and objections has been set as 29 April 2026.
Shantmanu instructed the officials to strictly adhere to the timeline for disposing of claims and objections and submit daily progress reports to the Commission. He asked the Block Development Officers to launch awareness campaigns at each Panchayat Halqa to widely publicise the roll revision process.
The Election Commission will also obtain continuous feedback from the district appointed Roll Observers to monitor the process and achieve 100 percent enrolment of eligible voters in the Panchayat electoral rolls. |
