BJP targets 86.86 lakh new voters in UP through a month-long campaign from November 17. Yogi Adityanath will monitor the voter registration drive.
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has launched an extensive organisational strategy to expand voter registration in Uttar Pradesh ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections. Under the BJP Voter Registration Campaign 2026, the party aims to add 50 new voters at every polling booth across the state. The month-long campaign will run from November 17 to December 16, focusing on voters whose names are missing from the electoral rolls following the Special Intensive Revision (SIR).
With Uttar Pradesh having approximately 1,73,730 polling booths, the BJP has set an ambitious target of enrolling around 86.86 lakh new voters. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath will personally monitor the campaign, along with senior party leaders and organisational office-bearers.
BJP Holds State-Level Workshop in Lucknow
A state-level organisational workshop was organised at the Indira Gandhi Pratishthan in Lucknow on November 13. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, BJP state president Pankaj Chaudhary, organisational general secretary Dharampal Singh and Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya attended the meeting.
Senior party leaders discussed the campaign strategy and assigned responsibilities to district presidents, organisational representatives and booth-level workers. The leadership instructed party members to take the electoral roll revision process seriously and ensure that eligible voters are not left out.
The BJP Voter Registration Campaign 2026 will involve coordinated efforts from the state headquarters to individual polling booths, with regular reporting and monitoring.
Yogi Adityanath’s Claim About 1.27 Crore Missing Voters
The campaign follows a claim made by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath regarding the difference between panchayat and Assembly electoral rolls.
According to the Chief Minister, approximately 1.27 crore Hindu voters are registered in panchayat electoral lists but do not appear on the Assembly voter list. The BJP has also highlighted cases involving beneficiaries of government welfare schemes whose names are reportedly missing from the Assembly electoral rolls.
To identify such individuals, the party plans to use panchayat voter lists, ration card records, government welfare beneficiary databases and other available information.
The initiative will also focus on young people becoming eligible to vote and women who have moved to their matrimonial homes after marriage but have not updated their voter registration.
Campaign to Run From November 17 to December 16
The Election Commission of India has scheduled the publication of the draft electoral rolls for Uttar Pradesh Assembly constituencies on November 17, 2026. The claims and objections period is expected to continue until December 16.
The BJP plans to use this period to intensify its voter registration activities through a structured, multi-level organisational programme.
The campaign will be implemented in the following stages:
1. State-Level Workshop – November 13
The first stage involved a state-level workshop in Lucknow. Booth Level Agents-1 (BLA-1), district and regional voter list coordinators, IT representatives, district presidents and leaders of various party wings participated in the meeting.
2. District-Level Meetings – November 16, 17 and 18
District-level meetings will be organised to prepare detailed plans for Assembly constituencies and individual polling booths. District presidents, in-charges, BLA-1 representatives, IT coordinators and other organisational officials will participate.
3. Assembly-Level Meetings – November 19, 20 and 21
The next phase will focus on Assembly constituencies. MPs, MLAs, MLCs, municipal representatives, block officials, mandal presidents and leaders of the youth and women’s wings will participate.
Workers will receive voter lists and information about Forms 6 and 8 to help eligible citizens complete registration and correction procedures.
4. Special Voter Registration Drive – November 22, 23 and 24
The BJP will launch an intensive booth-level campaign over these three days. Booth presidents, Shakti Kendra coordinators and BLA-2 representatives will coordinate door-to-door visits.
On November 22, every party office-bearer is expected to participate in the campaign by visiting an assigned polling booth. Workers will identify eligible citizens missing from the electoral rolls and assist them with registration applications.
Eight Categories of Voters on BJP’s Target List
The BJP has identified eight categories of people who will receive special attention during the campaign.
1. First-Time Young Voters: Individuals who will turn 18 on or before January 1, 2027, will be encouraged to register.
2. Women Who Have Moved After Marriage: Women living at their matrimonial homes whose names are not registered at their new residential locations will be identified.
3. Panchayat Voters: Individuals listed in gram panchayat electoral rolls but missing from Assembly voter lists will be approached.
4. Government Scheme Beneficiaries: People receiving benefits under government welfare programmes but absent from electoral rolls will be identified.
5. Ration Card Holders: Eligible ration card holders whose names are missing from voter lists will be encouraged to register.
6. Temporarily Migrated Residents: People who moved away temporarily for employment or other reasons will also be included in the identification process.
7. Support From Panchayat Assistants: Panchayat assistants will be approached to help identify eligible voters who may have been left out.
8. Kamal Saathi App: Available panchayat and other relevant voter information will be organised booth-wise and Assembly-wise through the party’s Kamal Saathi app.
Special Campaign for Women From November 28 to 30
The BJP has planned a separate three-day initiative to increase women’s participation in voter registration. The campaign will run from November 28 to November 30 under the coordination of the party’s Mahila Morcha.
Women who have shifted to their matrimonial homes after marriage will be a major focus. The party also plans to reach out to beneficiaries of the mass marriage scheme.
For wider outreach, BJP workers will seek cooperation from Anganwadi workers, ASHA workers, Self-Help Groups, the National Rural Livelihood Mission network and BC Sakhis.
Women party representatives and elected public representatives will participate in door-to-door activities to identify eligible women and help them get their names included in the electoral rolls.
Youth Voter Registration Drive From December 1 to 3
The BJP Yuva Morcha will lead a special voter registration campaign from December 1 to December 3.
The primary focus will be individuals between 18 and 25 years of age, particularly those who will become eligible voters by January 1, 2027.
The party also plans to reach students who have benefited from government initiatives such as scholarships, tablets and scooters but have not yet registered as voters.
Colleges, universities and other educational institutions will be approached for awareness programmes and registration camps. District-level meetings will help coordinate activities across different mandals.

Forms 6, 7 and 8 to Play a Key Role
As part of the BJP Voter Registration Campaign 2026, party workers will be educated about the different forms used for electoral roll-related applications.
The three important forms include:
– Form 6: Used to apply for inclusion of a new name in the electoral roll.
– Form 7: Used to submit an application for deletion of a name from the electoral roll, subject to applicable verification.
– Form 8: Used for corrections in voter details, shifting of residence and other permitted modifications.
These forms will help workers guide eligible citizens through the official voter registration and correction process.
BJP to Review Campaign Progress on December 13
The party has also established a monitoring mechanism to track progress across Uttar Pradesh. The state BJP office will monitor daily developments through WhatsApp groups and regular reporting.
District-level teams will report to mandal-level coordinators, who will further collect updates from booth and Shakti Kendra representatives.
Review meetings for Assembly constituencies are scheduled for December 13, 2026. Any shortcomings identified during the review will be addressed between December 14 and December 16.
Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, state president Pankaj Chaudhary, organisational general secretary Dharampal Singh and other senior leaders will oversee the overall campaign.
BJP Connects SIR Exercise With 2027 Assembly Election Preparations
The BJP’s voter registration initiative is not limited to adding names to electoral rolls. It also reflects the party’s broader organisational preparations ahead of the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.
By combining booth-level coordination, digital monitoring, door-to-door outreach and voter identification, the party aims to strengthen its organisational network across the state.
With a target of 50 additional voters per polling booth, the BJP is preparing to reach approximately 86.86 lakh potential voters across 1,73,730 booths.
The BJP Voter Registration Campaign 2026 will therefore be an important organisational exercise during the SIR process, bringing young voters, women, welfare beneficiaries and people missing from electoral records into its outreach strategy.
The effectiveness of the campaign will depend on identifying genuinely eligible citizens and ensuring that their applications are processed according to Election Commission rules.
