The countdown to Telangana’s voter list revamp is on, with Special Intensive Revision (SIR) preparations underway. CEO C. Sudarshan Reddy announced Thursday that despite a 2026 rollout, the state is wasting no time, urging parties to appoint essential Booth Level Agents (BLAs).
At a high-stakes huddle with political reps, Reddy laid out the roadmap: every booth needs a local BLA partnering with BLOs for unerring revisions marked by transparency and efficiency. It’s the frontline defense against errors and delays.
Drawing from ongoing SIR in 12 states, Telangana’s prep involves smart data linking from 2025 to 2002 rolls, now evolving into hands-on field mapping. BLOs are verifying homes door-by-door, prioritizing urban hotspots with repeated visits for total saturation.
First pass: enumeration forms. Follow-ups: the rest. And for those slipping through prep cracks? SIR proper will catch them. Reddy hammered home parties’ urgency in BLA staffing – it’s the formula for seamless ops, reduced friction, and voter inclusivity.
Joined by Additional CEO Vasa Venkateshwar Reddy and Deputy CRO Hari Singh, the meeting crystallized a shared commitment to bulletproof electoral rolls.
