Speaking on the occasion, he said an action plan for voter awareness for 45 days has been prepared in the district to ensure active voter participation in the poll process and exercising their franchise without fear.
He said that the voter turnover implementation plan should be prepared in the district and it should be strongly implemented at the field level. All efforts are being made to record 90 to 92 per cent polling in the upcoming general elections in the district.
Collector lauded SVEEP nodal officer DPO Tuthika Srinivas Vishwanath, who prepared a solid plan for this.
All efforts should be made to increase voter turnout in Nuzvid, Chintalapudi, Jangareddygudem and other areas along with Eluru Urban.

AROs should monitor the necessary arrangements so that the differently-abled people can use 100% vote, identify transgender in nursing homes and exercise their right to vote.
He said that the application for the respective postal ballot should be made within 5 days of the release of the election notification. Before the exams, SVEEP programmes should be organised in schools and colleges.
