ECI has also launched the application, Suvidha, for political parties to find permits needed during the election.
“An application called SUVIDHA has been made for all political parties to find permissions through one platform.
All departments such as the police will be integrated with them, so it will save them too and we too.
Like the last time, we might not need to run,” Kamat said .
During the meeting, the Congress repeated his objections to the appointment of most BLOs in the Mormaga constituency of a single electoral district.
“We have raised concerns about Mormagao, where from 29 BLO, 16 came from one department, the electricity department, and this has been going on for a long time,” said the country of Vicepressident Altinho Gomes.
