The Election Commission of India (ECI) is organizing a special enrollment drive from October 9 to October 10 to register young and first-time eligible voters in Tamil Nadu and other states where the electoral roll revision process has been completed. Chief Electoral Officer Archana Patnaik announced that special camps will be held in various districts, with a particular emphasis on urban areas and larger cities to encourage first-time and youthful voters to register.
Electoral Literacy Clubs in educational institutions will be employed to raise awareness and assist in the registration process. District Election Officers (DEOs) have been directed to disseminate information about the drive through media channels and their official social media platforms. Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) will engage in regular meetings with Booth Level Officers (BLOs) to track the progress of the initiative and ensure adherence to the guidelines.
