Assam To Use Voter Lists To Target 100 Per Cent Vaccination For Guwahati
NDTV
Assam Health Minister Keshab Mahanta said Guwahati had recorded 164 new Covid cases on Friday, and that the number of daily new cases in the city was still above 100
The Assam government will use the voters' list and data from 1,204 polling booths across Guwahati to verify the Covid vaccination status of the city's residents and identify those who have yet to get the jab, Health Minister Keshab Mahanta said Saturday. The government is targeting 100 per cent coverage in the state's largest city and de facto capital. "Each polling booth has its separate list of voters... which means 1,204 voter lists will be used to contact every voter/resident of Guwahati to confirm they have been vaccinated. For this purpose, BLOs (Block Level Officers) have been assigned to each list," Mr Mahanta said. He said BLOs had been trained in the process of vaccination verification at a three-day camp at the office of the Deputy Commissioner of the Kamrup (M) region, under which Guwahati falls.
