Earlier, people in West Bengal had to visit the Gram Panchayat office, Municipality office, BDO office, or meet the BLO multiple times just to check their names in the voter list. Now, the Election Commission has fully digitized the process. You can easily download the voter list of any Gram Panchayat, Municipality, Corporation Ward, or Village in West Bengal directly from your mobile or computer—instantly and free of cost.

What is SIR (Special Intensive Revision)?

The Special Intensive Revision (SIR) is a large-scale, detailed verification of electoral rolls conducted by the Election Commission of India (ECI).
It is much more comprehensive than the routine annual update.

Main Objectives of SIR

• Include all eligible 18+ voters
• Remove duplicate, deceased, or ineligible names
• Correct errors in name, age, gender, or address
• Ensure clean, accurate electoral rolls before major elections

SIR is conducted under Article 324 of the Constitution and provisions of the Representation of the People Act.
