ElectionRoll – Rajasthan Publishes Updated Voter List After Statewide Revision
ElectionRoll – Rajasthan’s updated electoral roll for 2026 has been officially released, marking the completion of a comprehensive statewide revision exercise carried out across 199 Assembly constituencies. The final list confirms that more than 5.15 crore voters are now registered in the state, reflecting a steady rise in participation and enrollment.
Increase in Total Registered Voters
According to data released on Saturday, the total number of registered electors now stands at 5,15,19,929. This includes 2,69,57,881 male voters, 2,45,61,486 female voters and 562 voters registered under the third gender category.
The newly published roll shows a net addition of 10,48,605 voters compared to the earlier draft version. Officials said this represents a growth of 2.08 percent. Several districts recorded notable increases in voter registration, with Jaipur, Phalodi, Bharatpur, Sirohi and Bundi reporting the highest surge in newly added names.
Improvement in Gender Ratio
The updated figures also indicate progress in narrowing the gender gap among voters. The gender ratio has improved from 909 to 911, suggesting a gradual rise in female voter enrollment across the state.
Districts such as Jaipur, Kota, Ajmer, Sirohi, Dungarpur, Bundi, Jhalawar and Baran showed encouraging gains in women’s registration during the revision period. Election officials attributed this improvement to focused awareness campaigns and outreach efforts aimed at encouraging greater participation among women.
Rise in Young Voter Enrollment
The number of first-time voters has also gone up significantly. In the 18–19 age group, 4,35,061 new voters were added to the rolls. This marks a growth of 0.82 percent compared to previous data.
Jaipur, Barmer, Bharatpur, Phalodi and Bundi recorded the highest increase in young voter registrations. Officials noted that targeted drives in educational institutions and public awareness initiatives played a key role in bringing more young citizens into the electoral process.
Distribution of Electoral Rolls to Political Parties
On the day of publication, District Election Officers convened meetings with representatives of all recognised political parties. During these meetings, both digital and printed copies of the 2026 electoral rolls were distributed free of cost.
Authorities said the process was designed to maintain transparency and ensure that political stakeholders have access to updated and accurate data well ahead of future electoral activities.
Voter Verification and Ongoing Updates
Citizens have been advised to verify their names and Elector Photo Identity Card details through the official portals of the state election department and the Election Commission of India.
Officials clarified that the revision process does not end with the final publication. The inclusion, deletion and correction of entries will continue throughout the year. Eligible citizens can submit applications through the prescribed forms—Form 6 for new inclusion, Form 7 for deletion and Form 8 for corrections—either online via the Voters Portal or by approaching their respective Booth Level Officers.
Extensive Administrative Coordination
The Special Intensive Revision 2026 was carried out with the involvement of a large administrative network. The exercise saw the participation of 41 District Election Officers, 199 Electoral Registration Officers and 1,651 Assistant Electoral Registration Officers.
More than 61,000 Booth Level Officers and over 1.08 lakh Booth Level Agents were also engaged in field-level verification and data collection. Volunteers and representatives of major political parties contributed to the process, while awareness campaigns were conducted across print, electronic and digital media platforms to inform citizens about registration procedures.
Election authorities stated that regular coordination meetings were held with political parties to address concerns and ensure the accuracy of the voter database. The final electoral roll for the currently vacant Assembly constituency is scheduled to be published on March 12, completing the remaining formalities of the revision cycle.
With the latest update, Rajasthan’s electoral database reflects broader participation and administrative transparency as the state prepares for upcoming democratic exercises.
