THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Kerala Governor Rajendra Viswanath Arlekar on Thursday called for full public cooperation with the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voters’ list, even as AICC general secretary and Wayanad MP Priyanka Gandhi criticised the exercise, alleging that it could open the door for manipulation of electoral rolls.

Inaugurating the SIR process at Raj Bhavan, Governor Arlekar urged officials to ensure that every eligible person in the State is included in the revised list.

“All eligible persons should get the chance to vote. The revised electoral roll should be total, besides being more accurate and inclusive, ” he said.
