- The Telangana government has launched a statewide electronic Family Register, with certificates available through the MeeSeva platform, to help citizens provide authenticated records of family composition for government services.
- State BJP president N Ramchander Rao has criticized the move, alleging it is a rush to issue Family Register Certificates to protect the ruling Congress's 'illegal vote bank' during the special intensive revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.
- He claimed the BJP will not allow any illegal Rohingya, Bangladeshi, or Pakistani to remain on the state's voter lists and said his party is ready to fight in the streets and courts.
- The government, per its order, says the register is meant to ease service delivery and standardize verification of family details.
