ECI officials call for a ‘360-degree plan’ for conduct of elections in a fair and peaceful manner in Andhra Pradesh

Senior Deputy Election Commissioners of India Dharmendra Sharma and Nitesh Kumar Vyas have stressed the need for error-free electoral rolls and conduct of elections in a fair, transparent and peaceful manner.

The Election Commission of India (ECI) would organise the Systematic Voters’ Education and Electoral Participation (SVEEP) programme wherever the polling was low, they said.

Speaking at the valedictory of the two-day review meeting on the Special Summary Revision (SSR) of electoral rolls and preparedness for the general elections here on December 23 (Saturday), Mr. Sharma told the district Collectors, Returning Officers, and Commissioners and Superintendents of Police to have a “360-degree plan” for the smooth conduct of elections, and ensure that all the officers concerned were accountable for the tasks assigned to them.
