Yet again I was immersed  reading Wikipedia articles and I found a site that basically provides search interface to search the electoral roll list of India.

With elections on the way  this tool would avoid people from visiting the poll booth and return back with out voting since they aren’t in the list. It can be accessed from the below link.

BTW I’m not sure if it really works because I kept encountering this login pop up which was annoying so I found the site for Tamil Nadu Election commison to check if I was there in the list.

One more you need to download their own tamil fonts and install. I know..

Bummer TN election has a search interface with Under construction message.  They do have another form which gives out tamil pdf for district – Constituency ward list for each of them.

Again bummer its in tamil so I can’t search in firefox or inside pdf which is a pain. So I had to literally read through all names in my ward and to every ones surprise I’m not listed

Waste of time. One good thing now I know my neighbours name and avoided a trip for my dad to check out the list.
