The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The YSRCP has petitioned the Election Commission of India and Andhra Pradesh's Chief Electoral Officer over suspected cross-state voter duplication and administrative problems during the ongoing Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
- The party, in representations filed on July 21, 2026, cited high rates of suspected duplicate electors in border constituencies such as Kuppam, Madakasira, Yemmiganur, Kodumur, and Adoni, and alleged pressure on Booth Level Officers to misclassify eligible residents.
- It also asked the Commission to defer polling station rationalisation until the final electoral roll is published, saying simultaneous booth restructuring and house-to-house enumeration would create confusion.
- The party wants inter-state verification through ERONET and EPIC-wise matching, and sharing of duplicate details with recognised parties before the draft roll is published.
What to watch next
- Whether the Election Commission acts on the request to defer polling station rationalisation until the final roll is published
- Whether inter-state duplicate verification via ERONET and EPIC matching is undertaken for border districts
- Whether duplicate details are shared with recognised parties before the draft electoral roll is published
