Rectify voter list errors by July 13: YSRCP


Hyderabad
, July 10, 2013: YSR Congress has
said that the voters list has been tampered in Pileru assembly constituency and
demanded the Election Commissioner to rectify the errors on time allowing all
eligible voters to take part in the democratic process.

“The names of
many supporters of YSRCP in Chief Minister’s constituency have been deleted
though they have voter ID cards while Congress workers are having dual voting
rights. We have urged the EC to look into the irregularities and he referred
the matter to District Collector. We demand that the electoral rolls should be
set right before the closing of nominations,’ Party spokesperson Janak Prasad
and the affected people told reporters here on Wednesday.

While the
names of supporters of YSRCP supporters are being deleted in various villages,
those who are in support of Congress are being registered at more than one
place. “Misuse of official machinery is in full play in deleting the names of
opponents and this trend should be reversed and all eligible voters should have
the chance to vote and contest,” they said.

The
irregularities are more in the Chief Minister’s home constituency while the
trend is same in other places as well.

The Chief
Minister has been violating the election code by making announcements on
Pulichinthala project and even the Irrigation Development Corporation officials
have been giving statements which go against the code, they said.

We demand
that the voters’ rolls should be in order and all those names deleted should be
included before July 13 which is the last date for nominations for the
first phase.
