After Express report, Goa CEO says cases of 97 voters ‘processed separately’

After Express report, Goa CEO says cases of 97 voters ‘processed separately’

On a day following The Indian Express' report on a major dispute within the Election Commission and the potential disenfranchisement of voters in Goa, the Chief Electoral Officer of Goa revealed that the 97 cases omitted from the final electoral roll published in February this year have since been processed individually. The office stated that these cases were individually addressed via house-to-house visits by booth-level officers for the completion of Form 6.

While many of these 97 people have now been added to the electoral roll, the remaining cases are still under processing. The office reiterated their commitment to including all eligible voters, emphasizing that no one will be left out.
