How to Remove or Object to a Name in the Voter List (Form 7)

Form 7 is used to object to the inclusion of a name in the electoral roll or to request deletion of an existing entry — for example, if a voter has died, permanently shifted, or is a duplicate.

Full step-by-step guide, kept up to date: How to remove a name from the electoral roll

Steps to submit Form 7

Good to know

The Electoral Registration Officer verifies every objection before deletion. A name cannot be removed without due process and notice.

हिंदी में जानकारी

Form 7 का उपयोग मतदाता सूची से नाम हटवाने या किसी प्रविष्टि पर आपत्ति दर्ज कराने के लिए होता है — जैसे स्थान बदलने, मृत्यु या दोहरी प्रविष्टि की स्थिति में।

आपत्ति की जाँच निर्वाचन अधिकारी करते हैं, और किसी का नाम सुनवाई का अवसर दिए बिना नहीं हटाया जाता।
