AP, TS to complete exercise by June 1

Chief Electoral Officer Bhanwarlal said that Aadhar seeding with voter ID cards has been satisfactory in Andhra Pradesh and Telangana states and hoped that the process would be completed by June 1.

Addressing a press conference here on Monday, Mr. Bhanwarlal said that 100 per cent of the voters in Kadapa, Guntur, Krishna, Prakasam and West Godavari districts have been linked with the Aadhar card.

In Telangana, the process was fully completed in eight districts. He added that the two Telugu states topped the list of states linking the voter ID with Aadhar.

The CEO said that with the Aadhar seeding, the names of deceased voters and those who have migrated permanently to other places would be removed suo motu from the list. However, voters who have not so far linked their IDs with the Aadhar would remain in the list because the objective of seeding Aadhar with voter ID was to avoid duplication.
