Revised J&K poll rolls may expand 33% with 25 lakh new voters over 3 years: CEO

In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the then undivided state of J&K had 78.4 lakh registered voters. Excluding what is now the UT of Ladakh, the number would have been 76.7 lakh. An addition of 20 to 25 lakh voters would hence constitute an increase by about 26 to 33% over a three-year period. Between 2014 and 2019, the increase in voters had been about 6.5 lakh.
