Ranchi, August 30 (HS). Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) K. Ravi Kumar held a review meeting with the Deputy Electoral Officers of all the districts on Friday through online medium from the Election House. The CEO directed to identify the BLOs and BLO supervisors who performed poorly in the voter revision program.

Ravi Kumar said that if BLOs do not work properly in their area, the election process is adversely affected. He said that the districts in the state where more applications related to voter registration are pending should take immediate action for this and ensure that the number of all pending applications is zero. He instructed all the Deputy Election Officers to ensure a meeting with the representatives of the recognized political parties of their districts and provide all the information related to the final publication of the voter list. Also, if any error related to the voter list is being reported by them, then mark it and resolve it.

Kumar said that all BLOs and BLO supervisors must obtain a certificate that no voter below the age of 18 years has been registered in their area. Certification must also be obtained from all BLOs to ensure that there has been no wrong deletion in the voter list.

In the review meeting, instructions were also given for detailed publicity of the Election Quiz-2024 competition examination going on in the state. It was also said that an action plan should also be prepared to run an awareness campaign related to EVM among the voters. Apart from this, instructions were given while reviewing the topics like name check campaign, EPIC PDF generation, registration of new voters, timely payment of election related dues etc. in the meeting.
