# 29,552 new voters added in Meerut after revision drive 2026-11-12T07:29:08+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Outlets counted: bhaskar.com Meerut district has added 29,552 new voters after a special summary revision, taking the total electorate to 22,23,189. Meerut South assembly seat recorded the highest increase at 8,472, followed by Meerut City at 5,736. The revision came after opposition parties protested a sharp drop in voter numbers following the earlier Summary Information Report, which had reduced the count to 21,93,637. Special camps were held on 17 and 24 October at polling booths. The final integrated voter list will be released on 17 November, and from that date until 16 December 2026, citizens can file claims and objections for name addition, deletion or correction. These will be resolved by 28 December 2026. The district now has 1,161 polling stations and 2,874 polling booths. ## Indian Opinion Analysis After the Special Summary Revision removed 29,552 names, the Election Commission ran a drive to add back eligible voters they missed. The resulting net increase shows the roll was incomplete. With the final integrated list due on 17 November and a month-long window for claims and objections closing on 16 December, anyone still missing has a fixed deadline. The opposition had protested the earlier cuts, but the commission's own process now offers a concrete remedy. The pending question is how many of the 29,552 additions came from voters whose names were previously deleted. ## Coverage - bhaskar.com Raw figure-led report without evaluative language This brief was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
