BLOs to Conduct Door‑to‑Door Voter Roll Verification in Meghalaya

The Election Commission of India has announced an extension of the deadline for publishing the updated voter roll in the state of Meghalaya. In response, Booth Level Officers (BLOs) have been directed to undertake a door‑to‑door verification campaign across the state.

The move aims to ensure that the electoral roll reflects the most accurate and current information, reducing the chances of duplicate or outdated entries. BLOs will visit residential premises, confirm voter details, and make necessary corrections on the spot.

Election officials say the extended timeline provides sufficient opportunity for residents to have their information verified before the final roll is released, thereby strengthening the credibility of upcoming elections in Meghalaya.

The door‑to‑door exercise is expected to commence shortly, with BLOs coordinating with local authorities to cover both urban and rural areas comprehensively.
