Rajasthan's Chief Electoral Officer Ashwini Bhagat today launched the Election Commission's web- based project, ERO-Net, using which voters can register their names on electoral rolls.

Till date, the Electoral Roll Management System (ERMS) software was being used to make voter lists but it could not identify multiple entries of a voter, Bhagat told reporters here.

It was being replaced with ERO-Net which was a transparent mechanism to identify whether the voter was listed anywhere in the country, he said.

Using ERO-Net, people can register their names on electoral rolls, rectify the details of their voter identity card, and transfer their names to another constituency online.
 

Bhagat said the virtual platform would be available for all the 200 Assembly constituencies in the state.

Voters can see their registration details on the official website of the state chief electoral officer (http://ceorajasthan.nic.in) or through an SMS.

Those who have completed 18 years of age as on January 1, 2018, and/or do not have their names in voters' list can get their registration done online by November 30 and also through the conventional system, Bhagat added.

There were 4,67,36,837 registered voters in the state, including 2,44,32,609 men and 2,23,04,228 women as on October 30.
