Ludhiana, February 1:
Additional Deputy Commissioner Major Amit Sareen while taking stock of poll preparedness in the district for the ensuing Lok Sabha elections on Thursday directed all the departments to submit employees' details in DISE Capsule software.
Participating in a meeting of all the departments virtually, the Additional Deputy Commissioner stressed the importance of preparing a database of human resources in all departments as early as possible to ensure smooth and fair upcoming Lok Sabha elections. He asked all officers to submit an error-free list of their staff in a timely manner. The data collected from the departments will be used to appoint presiding officers, micro observers, and other poll duties for the elections.
Sareen mentioned that the poll process is likely to start as soon as the Model Code of Conduct comes into force after the announcement of elections. He stated that approximately 15000-16000 employees were required to conduct smooth, hassle-free, and transparent polls. He added that every government employee has a duty to perform election duty.
Every central/state government department, along with public service undertakings, must furnish information for the elections, Sareen added. He also emphasized that each department must submit accurate and detailed information regarding their employees, which would be cross-checked by the administration. After reviewing the data, the administration will assign duties for the polls. He warned that any attempt to hide information about employees would not be tolerated, and strict action would be taken.
Election Tehsildar Amandeep Singh, DIO Neeraj Garg were also present on the occasion.
