The Congress alleges obstruction in Margao SIR drive as party workers faced interference during their door-to-door campaign in Azad Nagar. Congress claimed opponents blocked their team while educating residents about their rights and responsibilities during the ongoing electoral roll revision. The Congress alleges obstruction in Margao SIR drive brought attention to potential irregularities in Part No. 15.

Congress Block Convener Savio Coutinho said that most households reported they had not received the voter acknowledgement copies from the local BLO. When confronted, the BLO admitted withholding the copies, claiming the forms might be lost. Coutinho called this excuse “unjustified and irresponsible.”

The Congress team discovered multilayer voter enrolment in several households, where previous residents’ names remained on the electoral rolls even after moving out. The BLO confirmed this issue, highlighting a serious administrative lapse. Coutinho demanded that the Election Commission clarify whether multiple enrolments in a single household are permissible.

Coutinho emphasized that the Congress aims to ensure every eligible voter is included in the rolls while removing bogus entries. He vowed to continue the awareness campaign to safeguard voter rights and strengthen transparency in the electoral process.

Leaders and party workers are campaigning vigorously in every street to support party candidate Naveen Yadav. With just hours left for the campaign to end, the party has taken its efforts to a peak level.

To strengthen ground efforts, the high command appointed in-charge ministers for all seven divisions in the segment. Along with them, MPs, MLAs, MLCs, and corporation chairpersons are staying in the constituency to meet voters directly. Ministers are conducting door-to-door campaigns in local colonies, explaining government welfare and development programs.
