The staff of Tambaram taluk office in Chennai, Tamilnadu, were busy at a local waste paper mart — in a bid to recover 10 bundles of electoral rolls that went missing from the taluk office.
Revenue staff had checked the bags of temporary workers, who cleaned the taluk office, and were shocked to find voter rolls. Ten of total 20 such bags, in which were stocked draft voters rolls, were found missing. The search led to a waste paper mart and eight bundles of voter rolls were recovered.
Local RDO P. Ettiappan admitted the incident but allayed fears as they were only draft rolls dating back to 2008. The draft roll bundles were intact and the attempted sale thwarted. The stationery had been discarded but the issue was being probed, he added.
