Since its introduction in 2009, SVEEP has played a key role in encouraging citizens to participate actively in democratic processes, they said.<br \/>\nAt the chief electoral office level, several awareness activities have been undertaken during the SSR of electoral rolls, they added. \u201cThese include production of short videos, documentaries and slogans in local languages, dissemination of SMS alerts in English, Hindi and Urdu to subscribers of telecom networks\u2026 regarding voter registration, and publication of advertisements in leading newspapers across Jammu and Kashmir.\u201d Authorities have also broadcast audio spots through private radio channels, displayed scroll messages on cable television networks, and installed hoardings and posters at prominent locations to spread awareness about the voter enrolment process, they said. \u201cIn addition, scroll messages have been aired through Doordarshan stations in Jammu and Srinagar.\u201d At the district level, district election officers have launched multiple outreach initiatives.

Polling stations have hosted \u201cChunav Pathshalas\u201d to provide hands-on learning about voting procedures, they said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_35698\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35698\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-35698\" src=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-300x211.jpg\" alt=\"1.60 Lakh Additions In Annual Voter Roll Revision, 67,690 Entries Deleted\" width=\"300\" height=\"211\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-300x211.jpg 300w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-1024x720.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-768x540.jpg 768w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-549x386.jpg 549w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-398x280.jpg 398w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-233x164.jpg 233w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-218x153.jpg 218w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-340x239.jpg 340w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-100x70.jpg 100w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers-360x253.jpg 360w, https:\/\/jammubulletin.com\/site\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Votgers.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-35698\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">1.60 Lakh Additions In Annual Voter Roll Revision, 67,690 Entries Deleted<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jammu, Mar 16: More than 1.60 lakh voters were added to the electoral rolls in Jammu and Kashmir during the recent special summary revision (SSR), while 67,690 names were deleted and 2.29 lakh corrections carried out, according to official data.
