From its demography to its geography, Bengaluru looked very different 24 years ago, in 2002, when Karnataka last undertook an ‘intensive revision of special nature’ of its electoral rolls. The changing nature of the city makes the ongoing Special Intensive Revision particularly challengingfor both voters and Booth Level Officers, writes Rishita KhannaAfter receiving her enumeration form, Lakshmi P. (name changed), a 59-year-old voter from Padmanabhanagar, began searching for her details in the 2002 electoral rolls. She sifted through over 120 voters with the same name. Different spellings, the expansion of her initial and even her parents’ names led nowhere. It was only after she found her husband’s 2002 voter identity card that she realised the family’s electoral record in 2002 was under Uttarahalli Assembly constituency, not Padmanabhanagar. Relieved that she had finally traced the record, Lakshmi turned back to the enumeration form, only to find that the pre-filled details carried the same spelling error that appeared in her voter identity card. Should she point it out before submitting the form or later? Did both sides of the form have to be filled? Were all fields mandatory? If the pre-filled details were incorrect, whom should she approach?
