For this, the Election Department is going door to door to verify the voter list and add the qualified voters to the voter list and issue their identity cards.

Due to staying in, they are not able to exercise their vote. For all this, the Chief Electoral Officer directed the concerned officer to run a campaign for those whose names are not in the list. Make the voter list updated by setting up camps in such areas by getting citizens to fill Form 6 and Form 8.

Take departmental action against them immediately.

He directed all the office bearers that no voter should be left out, the names of all eligible voters should be registered in the list, voter ID should be made for all, along with this, every voter should be verified whether the details of voters are correct or not.
