Hyderabad: The Telangana Congress on Sunday, June 14, said that it will appoint one supervisor for every 10 booths and one coordinator for each Assembly constituency to resolve SIR-related issues.

The party is arranging to resolve issues through coordination with Assistant Electoral Registration Officers (AEROs) and Electoral Registration Officers (EROs), the TPCC said in a release.

The TPCC held a video conference with leaders in which Telangana Congress president Mahesh Kumar Goud and AICC in charge Meenakshi Natarajan attended.

Both leaders alleged that the BJP and the Election Commission were jointly involved in “vote theft” across the country and criticised the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, an undemocratic process aiming to help the BJP come to power.

They further alleged a possibility of vote theft in Telangana as well and urged party leaders in the constituencies to remain highly vigilant.

Booth Level Agents (BLAs) were advised to thoroughly scrutinise the voter-mapping exercise and ensure that every genuine vote is protected.
