After CM Yogi Adityanath's post-SIR voter list concerns, UP BJP on overdrive Age-wise data shows that the 30-39 age bracket accounts for the highest number of voters at 1,40,50,865, followed by the 20-29 age group at 1,29,48,107.

The EC has invited claims and objections till December 11, following which the final electoral roll will be published on January 4, 2027.

The increase in the number of voters assumes significance as the SIR had triggered a political row, with the Congress alleging the removal of eligible voters and the ruling BJP defending the exercise, maintaining it was undertaken to purge the names of deceased, shifted, absent and duplicate voters.

Madhya Pradesh is scheduled to go to the polls towards the end of 2028. The state's population is projected to reach 9.05 crore, compared with 7.26 crore recorded in the 2011 Census.

Madhya Pradesh has 230 assembly seats, of which 47 are reserved for Scheduled Tribes and 35 for Scheduled Castes, and 29 Lok Sabha constituencies, including six reserved for Scheduled Tribes and four for Scheduled Castes.
