Revision of electoral rolls ordered

New Delhi: The Election Commission has ordered revision of electoral rolls as on January 1, 2008.

“The Commission has directed all Chief Electoral Officers (CEOs) to get the electoral rolls of 2008 published by mid-January 2008,” a spokesman of the Commission said.

He, however, clarified that it was a routine exercise carried out every year by bringing fresh electoral rolls with January 1 as the base date.

The direction was given at a review meeting held here with the CEOs of 14 States and Union Territories from southern and western India, he said. — PTI
