Sri Ganganagar – The accuracy of the voter list is one of the strongest pillars of a vibrant democracy. Booth Level Officers (BLOs), considered the backbone of this process, not only conduct door-to-door distribution of forms but also ensure precise digitisation and verification of electoral records.
During the Special Intensive Revision of the Voter List–2026, several BLOs across Rajasthan displayed remarkable commitment even in challenging circumstances. Among them, Samesta of Sri Ganganagar and Kamla of the Masuda Assembly segment in Beawar stand out as inspiring symbols of dedication and women’s empowerment. Their stories are not merely personal achievements but powerful reminders that when women take responsibility, outcomes are extraordinary. Their determination was specially appreciated by Chief Electoral Officer Shri Naveen Mahajan during a video conference. He remarked that balancing both home and field duties while achieving targets is truly admirable.
Samesta, a Second Grade Teacher at RAU Primary School 7 LNP in Sri Ganganagar, was assigned BLO responsibilities for Part Number 160 of the Ganganagar Assembly Constituency. At home, she had a 7-month-old daughter and a 5-year-old son. Despite the immense pressure of managing young children and a demanding field assignment, she firmly refused to step back from her duty.
With the support of her husband, Shri Hoshiar Singh, who took charge of the household, Samesta devoted her full energy to the Special Revision work. After distributing enumeration forms to 983 voters in her area, she successfully completed digitisation of 806 forms within the deadline. Her ability to balance motherhood with administrative responsibilities stands as a powerful example of willpower and commitment.
She shared that the community also supported her throughout the campaign, enabling both faster and higher-quality results. For her commendable performance, Samesta was honoured with a Special Achievement Award by the District Election Officer—an acknowledgment of her dedication, courage and unwavering spirit.
Smt. Kamla, BLO of Part Number 215 in the Masuda Assembly constituency of Beawar, demonstrated exceptional devotion during the revision process. The region’s scattered villages, remote hamlets, poor network, and limited transport options often pose difficulties, yet Kamla remained undeterred.
Every day, she walked nearly 4 kilometres from Sobra village to reach farms and isolated hamlets. In several places, there was no mobile network, and at times, without transport, she walked the entire distance on foot. Still, she continued her routine with patience and perseverance—filling enumeration forms through the day and completing digitisation late in the evening, despite weak internet connectivity.
By 18 November, she achieved 100% distribution and digitisation of forms. Her dedication did not end there—after completing her own target on 19 November, she voluntarily assisted neighbouring BLOs in filling forms and digitising records.
