A delegation of Telugu Desam Party (TDP), led by State president K. Atchannaidu, met Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Mukesh Kumar Meena and complained to him about the alleged inaction on cases booked against widespread manipulation of electoral rolls.
Addressing the media later, Mr. Atchannaidu said the malpractices would be taken to the notice of a team of the Election Commission of India (EC) that would be visiting the State soon, if corrective action was not taken.
He said the CEO promised to issue memos to any derelict officer, be it a booth-level officer or even a District Collector, tasked with the updating of electoral rolls and hoped that he (the CEO) would keep his word.
