The Chief Electoral Officer of Telangana has launched a campaign to enrol eligible citizens residing in the gated communities and multi-storeyed complexes in the GHMC limits in the run up to the ensuing elections to the State Assembly.
The campaign was launched after CEO Vikas Raj held several rounds of discussions with the residents welfare associations of the GHMC and surrounding districts — Rangareddy, Medchal-Malkajgiri and Sangareddy — where it was found that there were 4,500 such associations in and around the GHMC limits. The associations agreed upon a standard operating procedure designed by the CEO’s office in this direction during a meeting on August 7.
Accordingly, 757 teams were constituted to collect applications from eligible voters and the process continued for more than three weeks. Enquiries into all the forms collected was initiated simultaneously and they were being disposed of on a regular basis. The disposal of applications would be completed by September 27.
