•-It is true! One household and its extension have got not less than 300 voters in Tuensang Headquarter. Everyone will know what and whom I'm referring of. Again, if we look at the total number of voters of this family, it will definitely have nearly thousand voters. However, time will come to reprimand any official who knowingly let it happened because this modus operandi is ensuing right under the nose of all concern.
Electors Photo Identity Card (EPIC) drive could have been the right opportunity to weed out all the bogus voters enlisted. But those involved in EPIC drive may be assuming lackadaisical approach. There may be many double photos of one person, dubious photo unmatched with person and many non locals photographed. Those involved in the EPIC drive will have to verify all these loopholes. I guess, if a sensible person could muster nerve to bring out the skeleton in the cardboard, the first person to be punished could be all those authorities involved in the EPIC drive because those involved have no probability to say " I didn't know" as this press article itself may be the evidence for all excuses.
In future, photo identity card may be required to identify yourself, in ration cards, in schemes like NREGA, train / flight ticket bookings, applying for jobs, etc. If it happens, one should know the risk of having double photo identity card.
I'm exceedingly sure no responsible individual and competent leaders of that area will co-relate this EPIC drive to development or any other eastern Nagaland matter. It is no related at all.
Candidly putting, in the future development, if any individual attempt to stand against the family having excess vote bank, it will be very difficult for the individual to win against them. That individual could be you, reading this article.
It is perhaps understandable if one Naga household has voters numbering around fifty. But it is unimaginable to have voters in hundreds. Correct this immediately.
