UP to disable 806 computer assistants' ECINET logins over voter roll errors
· India · Indian Express, The Hindu
Uttar Pradesh chief electoral officer's office ordered immediate deactivation of 806 computer assistants' ECINET login IDs across all Assembly constituencies. The move follows complaints of alleged misuse of credentials in Pilibhit and Azamgarh districts during the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls. Election officials stated booth-level officers (BLOs) were initially given portal access due to inadequate BLO app training, but most BLOs are now trained, making assistant support unnecessary. The directive aims to fix responsibility for voter entries, allowing only concerned BLOs to submit forms via ECINET or BLO app or physical submission.
Why it matters
The action directly impacts 806 government operators and ensures voter data entry is handled solely by designated BLOs, enhancing accountability in electoral roll management across Uttar Pradesh.
