The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Tuesday released the final voter list for Bihar following the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls . The revised list shows a significant increase in electors ahead of the state elections due this year.
Voters added and deleted
As of 24 June 2025, Bihar had 7.89 crore electors. During the revision process, a total of 65 lakh electors were removed and the first draft electoral roll published on August 1. It listed 7.24 crore electors. Subsequently, 3.66 lakh ineligible voters were deleted, and 21.53 lakh eligible electors were added through Form 6 applications.
The final electoral roll as of September 30 stands at approximately 7.42 crore electors, with Patna alone seeing an increase of 1.63 lakh voters across its 14 Assembly constituencies.
