Election Commission doubles the remuneration for Booth Level Officers; Enhances remuneration for BLO Supervisors

ECI also decides to give honorarium to ERO & AEROS

Pure electoral rolls are the bedrock of democracy. The electoral roll machinery, consisting of Electoral Registration Officers (EROS), Assistant Electoral Registration Officers (AEROS), BLO Supervisors and Booth Level Officers (BLOs), do a lot of hard work and play a pivotal role in preparation of impartial and transparent electoral rolls. The Commission has therefore, decided to double the annual remuneration for BLOs & also enhanced the remuneration of BLO Supervisors involved in the preparation and revision of electoral rolls. The last such revision was done in 2015. Also, honorarium has been provided for EROS and AEROS for the first time.
