Apparently in a bid to identify its prospective voters rather early in the run-up to the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP has embarked on 'Booth Chalo Abhiyaan' (let’s go to the polling booth) in the State. UP BJP leaders are also of the view that the campaign may help the party to identify the "unauthorised voters" including Rohingyas and those from Bangladesh. The Booth Chalo Abhiyaan started on October 5 and continued till October 10, UP BJP spokesperson Manish Shukla said. Elaborating about the campaign, Shukla said.
"The Booth Chalo Abhiyaan revolves primarily on three issues - youngsters turning 18 on January 1, 2019 should be made voters, names of all the unauthorised persons (including Rohingyas and others who have illegally entered India) be deleted from the voters list and correction of names of voters in the voter list be carried out ."
