On Monday, the district administration made an appeal to voters to check their names in electoral rolls and inform the concerned officer if they find any discrepancy.

“Removal of demographically similar entries, logical errors and checking of photo quality of electors is being done. With the help of software, duplicate Electoral Photo Identity Cards are being identified and deleted. Further, errors such as wrong photos or mistakes in names of voters and their parents are being rectified. We appeal to voters to cross check their details in electoral rolls,” MN Upadhyay, additional district magistrate, (finance) said.

Last week. Gautam Budh Nagar district magistrate BN Singh had held a meeting and asked officials to speed up the summary revision process so as to complete it as per the schedule.
