Chief Minister N. Biren Singh today said that any citizen of India who stayed at rent house at any constituency, if certified by the landlord can be enrolled in the voter list of that constituency.

The Chief Minister was replying to a question asked by Congress MLA Khumukcham Joykishan during question hour today.

“Any genuine Aadhar card holder, who is a citizen of India, if stay in a rented room can be enrolled in the voter list if he is certified by the land owner of his rented room”, the Chief Minister said. However no person from another constituency can enroll in the voter list of another constituency, he added.

In a statement tabled by the Chief Minister in connection with the question, the Chief Minister stated that, inmates of jail and other legal custody, hospitals, beggar homes, asylum etc. should not be included in the electoral rolls of the constituencies in which such institutions are located.

The Chief Minister assures to give instruction to the district authority for checking of the valid voters enrolled in the electoral roll. He also said that instructions will be given to cooperate with the MLAs and others who are putting up matters of wrongful enrolment at voter list

How does a policymaker contradict the constitutional norms of marriage?..on one hand Indian Constitution doesn’t allow polygamy in any form but on the other hand it is being practiced in our own state Manipur by some of the so called MLAs who are the representatives of the people of the land? Can’t this issue be taken seriously as they are the role models of many youngsters who look up to them as their role models… is this justice?!?
