In Andhra Pradesh, the voter list is currently being conducted by the Panchayat.. Two main parties, YSR Congress and Telugu Desam, are making complaints about voter fraud and fake votes. Alleging that the votes of their party sympathizers are being deleted, both the parties are complaining to the CEO Mukesh Kumar Meena along with evidence.
All this is one thing but the issue of double entry votes is another. The ruling party YSR Congress mainly accuses that after the elections in Telangana are over, those who voted there are trying to vote in Andhra Pradesh again. It is the party’s preference that a person should have only one vote per seat in the country. In a democracy, it wants to take action without voting. The YSRCP leaders have complained to the Chief Electoral Officer Mukesh Kumar Meena on the same issue several times.
Apart from the state, some people also have the right to vote in Telangana and Karnataka. Actions were requested to remove such votes. After the recent elections in Telangana state, lakhs of settlers from Andhra Pradesh are trying to return to AP to vote and complained to the CEO. The YCP leaders have complained to the Election Commission officials along with evidence that 4 lakh 30 thousand 264 people have voted in both areas. He asked to take action on this. Responding to the complaint of the YCP leaders, the Election Commission issued several orders to the District Collectors. State Chief Electoral Officer Meena ordered the Collectors to look into the complaints of double entry votes.
If you vote in Telangana, you have no chance to vote in AP.
The ruckus of double entry votes has been going on for some time. First, YSR Congress Party raised the issue. Assembly elections in Telangana are over. With this, a camp was set up in Pragati Nagar, Hyderabad under the auspices of the Telugu Desam Party to register to vote in AP. The YSP ministers have complained to the Election Commission that it is not right to do this. Such bogus votes were asked to be removed and Chandrababu also wrote a letter to the CEO asking him to remove the double entries if there is proper evidence. As the controversy continued, the Election Commission’s instructions to the Collectors became a matter of discussion.
According to Section 17,18 of the Representation of People Act 1950, a person should be registered as a voter in only one place. The EC said that there should not be a right to vote in more than one place. In the instructions given to the Collectors, legal action will be taken under Section 31 if he has registered for voting afresh by concealing the fact that he has a vote. The EC said that Form-6s are being used more and more recently for the registration of the right to vote.
It clarifies that Form – 6 should be used only for applying for first time vote and Form – 8 should be used only for changing the vote if there is an earlier one. In the EC orders, it is mentioned that in order to grant new right to vote through Form-6, field level inspection is necessary. According to these rules, wherever complaints of double entry are received from political parties, it is necessary to monitor them without fail. According to the EC’s latest directives, the Collectors will pay special attention to those who voted in Telangana and want to vote again in AP.
