Maharashtra Poll Body Tells BLOs to Accept Voter Papers on WhatsApp, Verify at Homes if Needed
Maharashtra’s Chief Electoral Officer S. Chockalingam has instructed booth-level officers to accept voter-related documents through WhatsApp and, where necessary, verify them at voters’ homes during the ongoing special intensive revision exercise. The directive comes as the deadline for claims and objections has been extended to October 12, signalling a more flexible and outreach-heavy approach to voter list correction.
