AP: YSRCP seeks EC probe into 'MyTDP Aap' misuse, intimidation of BLOs

Vijayawada, July 10 (UNI) The opposition YSR Congress Party MLC and state general secretary Lella Appi Reddy along with other party leaders on Friday submitted three detailed representations to the Chief Electoral Officer, Andhra Pradesh, with copies to the Election Commission of India, seeking urgent intervention to check what they claimed were serious irregularities surrounding the ongoing SIR process.
The party demanded a statewide independent inquiry into what it alleged was political interference, unauthorised handling of official Enumeration Forms by private persons, uploading of voter information into the MyTDP App, and intimidation of Booth Level Officers. It cited incidents from Nellore, Atmakur, Repalle and Thamballapalle as evidence of a systematic pattern.
In the Thamballapalle incident, an audio recording captures former TDP MLA Shankar's PA purportedly pressuring a BLO to hand over completed Enumeration Forms for uploading into the MyTDP App, while claiming that other BLOs across the constituency were already providing the forms. YSRCP sought an immediate inquiry, protection for BLOs and strict prohibition on handing official election records to political functionaries.
