BLO Suicides Put Election Commission Under Scanner Amid Voter List Revision | India Today

This special report focuses on the deaths by suicide of two Booth-Level Officers (BLOs) in Rajasthan and Kerala, and a suicide threat by a third in West Bengal, casting a shadow over the Election Commission’s special intensive revision of electoral rolls. The report highlights that families and other officers have alleged extreme work pressure, with several BLOs stating that ‘long hours and an early December deadline by the Election Commission have pushed them to breaking point’. The incidents have led to protests and boycotts by BLOs in multiple states, who claim the deadlines for the voter list revision are unrealistic. The Election Commission is now facing questions regarding the workload and accountability for the officers tasked with the nationwide exercise.
