# Telangana to issue notices to 93 lakh voters in roll revision 2026-08-18T05:06:13+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets (3 source reports) Telangana will issue notices to nearly 93 lakh electors who filled in enumeration forms but had anomalies or did not update details since the 2002 SIR, Chief Electoral Officer C. Sudharshan Reddy confirmed. The draft electoral rolls, published on August 17, show 73.39 lakh names deleted, reducing the total voters to 2.64 crore. Deletions include permanently shifted (45.18 lakh), absent (11.25 lakh), deceased (9.22 lakh), duplicate (6.70 lakh), and others (1.02 lakh). Political parties have appointed 49,018 Booth Level Agents for the SIR, with BRS leading at 20,394, followed by Congress (13,144) and BJP (11,621). Congress has alleged the exercise may lead to large-scale deletion of voters, accusing BRS and BJP of coordination, though no evidence has been provided. BRS and BJP deny the charge. Congress says Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has directed party workers to protect eligible voters. Meanwhile, applicants report errors in Family Register Certificates, including incorrect ages, and delays in issuance beyond the prescribed two-day timeline. Officials cite high application volumes and careful verification. AIMIM MLA Mohammed Majid Hussain has urged the MeeSeva commissioner to introduce a reprint option for corrections. The verification process must be completed by October 15, 2026, and deleted voters can file claims and objections by September 16, 2026. ## Coverage - thehindu.com - thehindu.com (2) - telugu360.com This story was synthesised by AI from the 3 sources linked above.
