Andhra Pradesh: Link Aadhaar with voter ID card to ensure transparency in electoral rolls, says YSRCP

The ruling YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) on September 5 (Tuesday) said that linking of Aadhaar with the voter ID card would offer a permanent solution to the issue of bogus and duplicate voters finding their way into the electoral rolls.

In a memorandum, the YSRCP urged Andhra Pradesh Chief Electoral Officer M.K. Meena to delete from the rolls the more than 50 lakh bogus voters enrolled prior to the 2019 elections.

The leaders who met Mr. Meena at the Secretariat, near here, included, among others, YSRCP legislators Perni Venkataramaiah (Nani), V. Srinivas, Malladi Vishnu, and MLC Lella Appireddy.
