“YSRCP has urged the Chief Electoral Officer to extend the ongoing SIR (Special Intensive Revision) schedule by one month, citing serious lapses in Enumeration Form distribution and digitisation,” it said.
The YS Jagan Mohan Reddy-led party pointed out to alleged severe difficulties in remote, tribal, forest and poorly connected areas, where field verification and digital uploads are being affected.
It requested immediate verification of alleged false reporting, clear directions to District Electoral Officers (DEOs) and Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), and an extension beyond the July 14 deadline of the SIR to ensure a complete, transparent and constitutionally compliant revision process.
