Quick Summary

If your name has been missed from the electoral list, even after voting for many years from the same address, you should first complain to the District Collector, who is also the District Election Officer. While filing a writ online might be too slow given the election date, you can also approach the Presiding Officer at your polling booth or check the ASD list. If your name is there, providing proof of residence might help reinstate it. Engaging a local advocate is also an option.

Thus it may not solve the purpose now.However you can engage the services of an advocate in the local on the terms of the chosen advocate

Check if your name is in the ASD (Absent/Shifted/Dead/Duplicate) list.
If your name is present in the ASD list, provide proof that you are residing in the same constituency.

You can get your name reinstated if it is missing, by applying to the District Collector with all relevant details of copy of Voter Card, Address Proof. They shall look into the matter and shall do the neeful
