West Bengal SIR: Check the ASDD List and File Form 6 to Restore Your Name — October 2026 Citizen Guide

If your name is missing from West Bengal’s electoral roll after the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of 2026, the first step is to check the official records and identify which list your name appears in.

The Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), West Bengal, provides access to the ASDD list, the final electoral roll, supplementary lists and deletion lists. These records serve different purposes, so checking only the original ASDD list may not tell you your current voter-registration status. Official CEO West Bengal SIR portal.

Important for October 2026: The original SIR claims-and-objections window shown on the ASDD portal was 16 December 2025 to 15 January 2026. Do not assume that this deadline remains open. The current route depends on whether you need a fresh inclusion application, a correction, or action on an existing SIR deletion appeal.

What Is the ASDD List?

ASDD refers to a list of electors whose names appeared in West Bengal’s 2025 electoral rolls but were not included in the SIR 2026 draft roll because their enumeration forms had not been received, according to the CEO’s official portal.

The list helps electors identify records requiring follow-up. An entry in the ASDD list is not, by itself, proof that a person is ineligible to vote or that the person’s name has been permanently deleted.

The next step is to check the latest official electoral-roll records and establish what action, if any, is needed.

Step 1: Check the Official ASDD List

Use the official West Bengal ASDD search page.

The portal provides options to search by EPIC number and to download ASDD lists by Assembly Constituency and polling-station part number.

Keep these details ready:

  • Your EPIC number, if available
  • Your name as it appeared in the earlier electoral roll
  • Your Assembly Constituency
  • Your polling-station or part number, if known
  • The name of a parent or other relative recorded in the roll

Follow the on-screen instructions and CAPTCHA requirements. If you cannot find your entry online, contact your Booth Level Officer (BLO) or Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) for assistance.

Step 2: Check the Final Roll and Supplementary Lists

The ASDD list is not the only record you need to check.

Visit the official SIR 2026 portal and look for:

  • SIR Final Roll 2026
  • Supplementary lists
  • Deletion lists
  • Appellate Tribunal supplementary and deletion lists
  • The current “Find Your Name in Electoral Roll” service

The CEO portal lists the final roll published on 28 February 2026 and subsequent supplementary and deletion lists. Check the latest available records rather than relying on an old screenshot, a forwarded message or the original draft roll.

If your name appears in a later supplementary roll, note the relevant constituency, part number and serial number. If it remains absent or appears in a deletion list, determine the correct next step before submitting another application.

Step 3: Understand When Form 6 Is Appropriate

Form 6 is the application for inclusion of a name in the electoral roll. It is not a general-purpose appeal form for every kind of SIR dispute.

It may be relevant if you are an eligible Indian citizen who ordinarily resides in the constituency and needs to apply for inclusion under the applicable electoral-registration process.

The Election Commission’s Voters’ Service Portal provides the Form 6 service. The West Bengal CEO also lists Form 6 among its official downloadable forms.

For SIR-related applications, the required declaration and supporting documents must be checked against the current instructions. The original West Bengal SIR process specified Form 6 together with the prescribed declaration and supporting documents.

Before filing, identify your situation

Your situationWhat to do
You are an eligible elector applying for inclusion and your name is missingCheck the current Form 6 process and applicable declaration requirements
Your name appears in the final or a supplementary rollVerify the entry details and keep a copy for your records
Your name appears in a deletion listCheck the deletion record and the applicable review or appeal route
You already have an SIR appeal pending before a tribunalFollow the tribunal process and current official directions; do not assume a fresh Form 6 will replace the appeal
Your address or other particulars have changedCheck whether Form 8, rather than Form 6, applies
You are an overseas Indian electorCheck Form 6A and the special eligibility requirements

Step 4: How to Apply Through Form 6

If Form 6 is the correct route for your situation, start from the official ECI Voters’ Service Portal.

  1. Open the Form 6 service.
  2. Enter your personal details, date of birth and ordinary-residence address accurately.
  3. Provide the required age and residence information.
  4. Upload the prescribed supporting documents, where required.
  5. Complete the applicable declaration required under the current instructions.
  6. Review the information before submitting.
  7. Save the acknowledgement or reference number.

You may also seek assistance from your local BLO or ERO. West Bengal’s CEO portal lists 1950 as the voter helpline.

Do not submit false information or claim residence at an address where you do not ordinarily reside. Electoral-registration declarations have legal consequences.

Step 5: What Documents Should You Keep Ready?

The exact documents depend on the application and the current instructions. You should be prepared to provide the applicable evidence of age, identity and ordinary residence.

Keep available, as relevant:

  • EPIC or voter-ID details
  • Aadhaar, where applicable and accepted for the stated purpose
  • An accepted age or date-of-birth document
  • Accepted proof of ordinary residence
  • Details of an eligible family member already listed at the address, if relevant
  • The prescribed SIR declaration, where required
  • A copy or screenshot of the relevant electoral-roll entry
  • Previous application acknowledgements or appeal references

Check the current Form 6 guidelines before uploading documents. Do not assume that one identity document automatically proves every eligibility requirement.

Step 6: Track the Application and Keep Proof

After submitting an application, save the acknowledgement number and use the official portal to track its status.

If the application requires verification, respond to any notice from the electoral-registration authorities and keep copies of the documents submitted.

If your application is rejected or the status does not change, contact the ERO or BLO and ask for the applicable procedure and reasons. Keep the date, reference number and any written communication.

Submitting Form 6 does not mean that your name has already been restored. Inclusion depends on eligibility, verification and the decision under the applicable process.

What If Your Name Was Deleted and You Have Already Appealed?

This distinction is especially important in October 2026.

Recent reporting on 9 October 2026 said the Supreme Court was considering whether election tribunals should prioritise appeals by West Bengal voters whose names were deleted during the SIR process. The Court was scheduled to hear the matter again on 16 October 2026. The report also noted that the CEO had sought clarification from the Election Commission about Form 6 in the context of tribunal appeals.

These developments mean that voters with an existing deletion appeal should not assume that filing a new Form 6 will resolve the pending dispute.

If you have already appealed:

  • Keep your tribunal or appeal reference number.
  • Preserve copies of the original roll entry and deletion record.
  • Follow notices and directions from the tribunal.
  • Check the latest orders and instructions before filing another form.
  • Contact the relevant authority if you need to know whether any additional application is permitted.

For the latest developments, check the CEO West Bengal SIR portal and official notices. News coverage can provide context, but the applicable order and directions should guide your next step.

If the website does not resolve your issue, contact your BLO or ERO and ask which procedure applies to your current status.

October 2026 Citizen Checklist

Before taking action, confirm each item:

  • I checked the official ASDD list.
  • I searched the final electoral roll and the latest supplementary or deletion lists.
  • I identified whether my case concerns fresh inclusion, a correction or a deletion appeal.
  • I checked the current Form 6 instructions and declaration requirements.
  • I saved my application or appeal reference number.
  • I kept copies of relevant documents and official communications.
  • I checked the latest official directions if my SIR appeal is pending.

The Bottom Line

If your name is missing from West Bengal’s electoral roll, start by checking the ASDD list, final roll and latest supplementary or deletion records on the official CEO portal.

Use Form 6 only when it is the appropriate route for your circumstances, and follow the current declaration and documentation requirements. If your name was deleted and you already have an appeal pending, check the latest tribunal and Election Commission directions before submitting another application.

Most importantly, do not assume that appearing in the ASDD list automatically means you are permanently excluded—or that filing Form 6 automatically restores your name. Verify your current status and follow the procedure that applies to your case.
