BANGALORE: Following the directions of the Election Commission of India, the Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BMP) will conduct a month's special summary revision of electoral rolls from January 1.

Those who have completed 18 years as on January 1, 2007, and those whose names are not found in the existing rolls can register.

During this special campaign, the BMP officials will also receive forms for claims and objections from people at designated locations and at the office of the Electoral Registration Officer.

According to a release issued by District Election Officer Venkataramana N. Naik, who is also BMP Deputy Commissioner (Administration), the officials will visit new buildings, areas and streets that have been left out during the previous summary revision and issue forms for filing claims and objections.

People can use form no. 6 for inclusion of names; form no. 7 for deletion of names and filing objections with regard to entries in the existing roll; form no. 8 for corrections in the existing roll; and form no. 8/A for shifting of names from one place to another in the same constituency, the release said.
