Telangana CM Seeks Four-Week Extension for Electoral Roll Revision Deadline
Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has requested the Election Commission of India to extend the deadline for filing claims and objections under the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls by four weeks. He highlighted concerns over the short current schedule and the large number of voters flagged under the Absent, Shifted, Dead, and Duplicate (ASDD) categories, urging procedural safeguards to prevent eligible voters from being excluded. Reddy also suggested measures like convening local meetings and opening help desks to assist voters during the revision process.
