There is no need to apply for deletion of your name from the old place before applying for inclusion in the new place. The deletion of the concerned entry from the electoral roll where your name was included previously is a subsequent act after your name has been included in the new place. However, you must give complete details of the previous place where you name was already included when submitting you application in Form 6.
