Muzaffarpur : The Election Commission of India (ECI) has expressed its strong displeasure over tardy pace of enrolment of youth in the age group of 18-21 year in the electoral roll in Muzaffarpur district.

Deputy Election Officer Praveen Jehan said that against a target of enrolment of 1.22 lakh youth by July 31, 2017, the achievement is only 3 % so far in Muzaffarpur district. She said that altogether 2.45 lakh youth in 18-21 year age group have to be enrolled in Muzaffarpur district. She said that prima facie Booth Level Officers (BLOs) and Electoral Registration Officer appear to be responsible for the situation. The BLOs are not doing their job properly at ground level, she added.
