Karnataka Election Commission releases list of 1.11 crore voters marked as ASDDO

The Karnataka Chief Electoral Officer has released the details of 1.11 crore voters classified under the ASDDO category, which includes those who are absent, shifted, dead, or registered in multiple locations. This group represents 20.03 percent of the state's 5.54 crore total voters. Officials have urged citizens to verify their status and submit necessary forms to correct any errors before the August 8 deadline. Failure to submit these forms by the cutoff date will result in the exclusion of these voters from the upcoming draft electoral rolls.

What Happened

The Karnataka Chief Electoral Officer, V Anbukkumar, has made the list of 1.11 crore voters categorized as ASDDO available for public review. This classification covers individuals identified as absent, shifted, dead, or having duplicate registrations. Voters are encouraged to check their status through the official Election Commission website or by contacting their local Booth Level Officer to confirm if they have been incorrectly marked in this category.

The deadline for submitting the required forms to rectify these entries is August 8. After this date, the mobile application used by Booth Level Officers will be frozen, preventing any further updates or uploads. Voters who do not complete the verification process by the deadline face the risk of being excluded from the draft electoral rolls, which are scheduled for publication following the conclusion of the special summary revision process.
