ECI Launches Training Programme for New Electoral Officers

The Election Commission of India (ECI) inaugurated a two-day capacity-building training programme for Booth Level Officers (BLOs), BLO Supervisors, and Electoral Registration Officers (EROs) from Bihar, Haryana, and the National Capital Territory of Delhi at the India International Institute of Democracy and Election Management (IIIDEM), New Delhi.

A total of 371 grassroots election officials are participating, including 306 BLOs from Bihar, 30 officers from Haryana, and 35 from Delhi. With this batch, over 2,600 field officials have been trained by the ECI in the past two months.

Chief Election Commissioner Shri Gyanesh Kumar highlighted the issue of issuing standard identity cards to BLOs to facilitate door-to-door verifications. The training covers practical aspects such as voter registration, form handling, electoral roll appeals under the Representation of the People Act 1950, and the use of IT tools including the Voter Helpline App.

The programme includes interactive sessions, role plays, case studies, and hands-on exercises for filling Forms six, seven, and eight. Officials also receive training on electronic voting machines (EVMs) and Voter Verifiable Paper Audit Trails (VVPATs) including mock polls.
