Palamu, April 27 (Hindustan Reporter) Former minister Radhakrishna Kishore on Saturday Jharkhand Chief Electoral Officer K. While meeting Ravi and giving a written memorandum, he has requested to ensure 100 percent voting of the voters of the militancy affected forests and hills of Palamu parliamentary constituency. Last week, former minister Kishore had visited the villages of Chipo, Bataspur, Rajderwa, Budhi, Bukka, Chetma Ratnag, Seedha, Kawal, Bhitiharwa, Dagra, Risiappa etc. in the insurgency affected area of Chhatarpur assembly constituency.
Told the Chief Electoral Officer that voters of many other villages like Ratnag, Sahiyar, Jhadwa Chhadan, Palhe Pathra, Matnag etc. do not have detailed information about the current Lok Sabha elections.
Many laudable programs like 'Sweep' are being run by the Election Commission for 100 percent voting in the current Lok Sabha elections, but it is unfortunate for democracy that the voters of the heavily insurgency affected village of Palamu parliamentary constituency are not able to get detailed information about the current Lok Sabha elections. .
Kishore told the CEO through a memorandum that in the past there has been a severe boycott of the electoral process by extremist organizations. Election campaigning by political organizations is completely prohibited. If caught campaigning, campaign vehicles were set on fire. Violent action was taken against voters who participated in voting. Many police-polling personnel participating in the election work had to sacrifice their lives, but now the circumstances have changed. Voters of insurgency affected polling stations want to vote, but there are many difficulties faced by the voters, like the voters of Palhe Pathra under polling station number 335 (Harni) of Chhatarpur Assembly have to travel a distance of about 8 km to go to Harni polling station. Will have to. Voters of Chipo, Basantpur and Rajderwa villages falling under polling station number 106 (Hulsam) will have to travel a distance of about 8 km to go to Hulsam polling station.
Similarly, voters of Chetma and Budhi villages falling under polling station number 277 (Buka) will have to travel a distance of about 3-4 km to reach Buka polling station. There is a need to identify such inaccessible polling stations and make arrangements for the voters to reach the polling stations by the district administration, so that the voters of the remote and inaccessible areas affected by terrorism can participate in the great festival of democracy. With the above type of arrangement, the voting percentage in the militancy affected areas will increase and the roots of democracy will also be strengthened.
