Voter ID mein address kaise update kare?

Aapko apne Voter ID card mein address update karna hai, toh iske liye Election Commission of India (ECI) ne ek simple process banaya hai. Aap isse online ya offline dono tareeke se kar sakte hain. Chaliye, main aapko step-by-step bataata hoon ki aap kaise apna address update kar sakte hain.

Sabse pehle, aapko yeh jaanna zaroori hai ki address update karne ke liye aapko Form 8 bharna hoga. Yeh form "Correction of entries in electoral roll" ke liye hota hai.

Online Tarika (Preferred Method)

Online tarika sabse convenient hai aur aap ise ghar baithe kar sakte hain.

Step 1: Official Portal Par Jaayein Sabse pehle, aapko Election Commission of India ke official voter services portal par jaana hoga.

• Website: National Voter's Service Portal (NVSP) ya Voter Helpline App.
• URL: https://www.nvsp.in/ ya https://voters.eci.gov.in/ (Naya Portal).
• Aap Google Play Store ya Apple App Store se Voter Helpline App bhi download kar sakte hain.

Step 2: Register Ya Login Karein

• Agar aap pehli baar is portal par aa rahe hain, toh aapko Register karna hoga. Iske liye aapko apna mobile number aur kuch basic details provide karni hongi. Aapke mobile par OTP (One Time Password) aayega verification ke liye.
• Agar aap pehle se registered hain, toh apne registered mobile number ya EPIC number (Voter ID number) aur password se Login karein.

Step 3: Form 8 Select Karein

• Login karne ke baad, aapko various services ka option dikhega. Wahan par "Correction of entries in electoral roll" ya "Shifting of residence/correction of entries in existing electoral roll/replacement of EPIC/request for marking as PwD" ka option hoga. Is par click karein.
• Aapko Form 8 select karna hoga.

Step 4: Details Bharein

• Form 8 mein aapko pucha jayega ki aap kis cheez ke liye apply kar rahe hain. Aapko "Shifting of residence" ya "Correction of entries" ka option select karna hoga.
• Next, aapko apna Voter ID number (EPIC number) enter karna hoga.
• Phir, aapko apna state aur district select karna hoga.
• Aapko apna Naya Address (jahan aap shift hue hain) carefully fill karna hoga. Ismein proper house number, street, area, post office, pincode, aur assembly constituency mention karein.
• Required Documents Upload Karein:
  • Address Proof: Naye address ka proof dena hoga. Jaise ki:
    • Aadhaar Card
    • Bank/Post Office Passbook
    • Ration Card
    • Passport
    • Driving License
    • Water Bill
    • Electricity Bill
    • Gas Connection Bill
    • Registered Rent Agreement (Agar kiraye par rehte hain)
  • Identity Proof: Agar aapka naam ya baaki details mein bhi correction hai, toh identity proof (jaise Aadhaar, Passport, Driving License) ki scanned copy bhi upload karni pad sakti hai.
  • Ensure ki documents clear aur readable hon. File size aur format (PDF, JPEG) ki limits ka dhyaan rakhein.

Step 5: Preview Aur Submit Karein

• Saari details bharne aur documents upload karne ke baad, ek baar form ko Preview karein. Check karein ki saari jaankari sahi hai aur koi galti nahi hai.
• Agar sab theek hai, toh Submit button par click karein.
• Submission ke baad, aapko ek Reference ID milegi. Isse sambhal kar rakhein, kyunki isse aap apne application ka status track kar sakte hain.

Offline Tarika

Agar aap online apply nahi karna chahte ya access nahi hai, toh aap offline bhi apply kar sakte hain.

Step 1: Form 8 Prapt Karein

• Aap Form 8 ko online NVSP website se download kar sakte hain aur uska printout nikal sakte hain.
• Ya phir, aap ise apne nearest Electoral Registration Officer (ERO) ke office, Assistant Electoral Registration Officer (AERO) ke office, ya Booth Level Officer (BLO) se collect kar sakte hain. Ye offices generally Tehsildar/SDM office mein hote hain.

Step 2: Form Bharein

• Form 8 ko pen se saaf-saaf bharein. Saari required details jaise apna naam, naya address, purana address, Voter ID number, etc., sahi se fill karein.
• Jis section mein "Shifting of residence" ya "Correction of entries" ka option ho, usko tick karein.

Step 3: Documents Attach Karein

• Upar bataye gaye Address Proof aur Identity Proof (agar zaroori ho) ki self-attested copies (yani, aapke sign kiye hue photocopies) form ke saath attach karein.
• Apne purane Voter ID card ki photocopy bhi attach karna helpful hoga.

Step 4: Form Submit Karein

• Bhara hua Form 8 aur saare documents ke saath aapko apne nearest ERO office ya BLO ke paas submit karna hoga.
• Form submit karte samay, acknowledgement receipt lena na bhulein. Ismein aapka reference number hoga jisse aap status track kar sakte hain.

Fees Aur Processing Time

• Fees: Voter ID mein address update karne ke liye koi official fees nahi hai. Yeh service bilkul free hai.
• Processing Time: Address update hone mein generally 7 se 30 din tak ka samay lag sakta hai. Kabhi-kabhi yeh thoda zyada bhi ho sakta hai, khaaskar elections ke time. Aap apni Reference ID se status online track kar sakte hain.

Important Tips:

• Accurate Information: Hamesha sahi aur complete information bharein. Koi bhi galat jaankari aapke application ko reject karwa sakti hai.
• Clear Documents: Jo bhi documents aap upload ya attach kar rahe hain, woh clear aur readable hone chahiye.
• Follow Up: Agar aapko 30 din ke andar koi update nahi milta hai, toh aap apne Reference ID ke saath online status check karein ya ERO office mein follow up karein.
• BLO Verification: Application submit hone ke baad, aapke area ka Booth Level Officer (BLO) aapke diye gaye address par verification ke liye aa sakta hai. Unko cooperate karein.

Is process ko follow karke aap aasani se apne Voter ID card mein address update kar sakte hain.
