The total number of voters in the 18-19 age group is 67,020. The BBMP also plans awareness campaigns in colleges to increase the registration of first-time voters.

“The number of voters deleted from the list is 1,75,183. The reasons for deletion are change of address, request for removing names and cases of voters having two addresses,” he added.
