Manipur Final Electoral Roll Released: Changes in Voter Distribution

The Election Commission of Manipur has published the final electoral roll, which indicates a total of 1.96 million registered voters across the state.

Stakeholders in the region are encouraged to verify their registration status and ensure that all eligible voters are included for the upcoming electoral exercises.
