This information is to be collected through BLOs by matching the 2003 voter lists with the 2025 lists. The Election Commission of India has scheduled a conference on September 10 regarding this work. Therefore, pressure is being put on the District Electoral Officers (BLOs) to provide the required information before September 8.
