Sources: 3. Developments: 2. The voter enrolment process for graduates in the Mahabubnagar–Rangareddy–Hyderabad and Warangal–Khammam–Nalgonda constituencies has faced administrative and technical challenges. Initially, the Telangana Chief Electoral Officer issued a directive to ensure that Form-18 applications for these constituencies are not rejected simply because applicants lack an Electors Photo Identity Card (EPIC) number. This followed reports from the Telangana Voter Rights Forum regarding errors in the Special Intensive Revision process, where voters claimed they were being incorrectly flagged as deceased or untraceable. By early November, the registration process encountered further complications as the online Form-18 portal reportedly experienced service errors and accessibility issues. Political representatives have raised concerns with the Telangana CEO and the Election Commission of India regarding these technical glitches, as voters face a looming submission deadline. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-02: Telangana graduates face technical issues with MLC voter registration Technical glitches in the Telangana CEO online portal are preventing graduates from completing Form-18 registration for the upcoming MLC elections before the November 6 deadline. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/telangana-graduates-face-technical-issues-with-mlc-voter-registration ### 2026-10-14: Telangana electoral updates: EPIC numbers not mandatory for graduates Telangana officials have ruled that EPIC numbers are not mandatory for graduates' voter enrolment, while rights groups raise concerns over errors in electoral roll revisions. 3 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/telangana-electoral-updates-epic-numbers-not-mandatory-for-graduates --- Cite as: Telangana graduate voter registration process.
