A colleague of mine has shared some useful information on finding polling booth for those who have registered for their voter ID in the last couple of months in Andhra Pradesh. Cross posting the blog here for the benefit of all.
1. Checking application status:
The registration status is now up on the http://www.ceoandhra.nic.in/. To view the status, click on E-Registration -> Know your status. In the page that opens up, enter the application ID received during voter id registration.
This opens a new “E-Registration User Status Page”. If the registration status says “Accepted by ERO”, it means you are all set!!
You can use the other fields of this page to identify your voting booth. Please note down your AC(Assembly Constituency)-Number (e.g. 52-Serilingampally), the Part Number( e.g. 272) and the EPIC Number(e.g. SWD324234) from this page.
You can also head over to the “E-Seva Counter” address mentioned in this page to pick up your new voter id card (although it is not mandatory to have the new id on the day of election).
2. Finding your polling Booth:
Open the following URL – http://www.ceoandhra.nic.in/. Click on “PDF Electoral Rolls”. In the page that opens, select your district and the Assembly constituency (AC Number obtained in step 1) and click on “Get Polling Stations”.
Search for the Part Number obtained in step 1 among the obtained polling stations to find your polling booth address.
3. Verification if name exists in electoral rolls (Optional):
Beside the Polling booth address found above, there are two view buttons(one for Telugu rolls and another for English). Click on view hyperlink to open the PDF containing voters from your part no., search for the EPIC Number obtained in step 1 to check if your name is included in the rolls.
If you are able to find your name, note down the serial number across your Name. Having this serial number will save time during verification in the polling booth when you head over to vote.
---------------
Another mechanism to search for your polling booth is go to http://www.ceoandhra.nic.in and click on “Search your Name”. Please enter the required details and click on Search. You might get lucky!!
All that remains is to head over to the polling station on April 30th!!
