Without specifying the number of deleted voters in Mohali, the administration on Monday published the final electoral roll after the Special Intensive Revision (SIR), recording 7,47,569 electors against 8,10,719 in 2024, resulting in a reduction of 63,150 (7.8%) registered voters. However, this can’t be treated as the final deleted figure as the electoral roll mentioning 7,47,569 voters also includes fresh registrations. The administration is expected to release the final deleted figures later.
According to the final rolls, Dera Bassi has the highest electorate at 2,79,857, followed by Kharar with 2,65,702 and Mohali with 2,02,010. In comparison, the electorate across the district stood at 8,10,719 during the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, comprising 4,24,658 men, 3,86,022 women and 39 voters in the other category.
Deputy commissioner-cum-district election officer Komal Mittal announced the publication of the rolls at a meeting with representatives of recognised political parties in the presence of roll observer Mohammad Tayyab. Copies of the electoral rolls were handed over to the party representatives.
The final rolls are available at the offices of booth-level officers (BLOs), electoral registration officers (EROs) and the district election office. Eligible citizens whose names are missing can apply for fresh registration using Form 6 during the continuous updating process, either online or through the concerned election officials.
