The Office of District Election Officers (DEOs) has asked all Booth Level Officers (BLOs) and BLO Supervisors to follow the official social media handles of the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), Punjab. This step is part of the ongoing SVEEP (Systematic Voters’ Education and Electoral Participation) programme.
In a formal memo, the DEOs reminded officers of earlier instructions from the CEO. They must now follow the CEO’s Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube pages. The purpose is to spread verified voter education content, ensure uniform messaging across districts, and increase public awareness about elections.
BLO Supervisors and BLOs have also been directed to submit proof of compliance. District offices must compile the data and send one verified report to the CEO, Punjab, by September 29.
Officials explained that this move is part of a stronger digital outreach. By engaging BLOs, who work directly with voters, the election office wants to extend its reach, promote authentic information, and stop misinformation.
The DEOs have made it clear that these instructions are mandatory for all officers linked with voter education work.
