He urged every voter in Punjab to cooperate with the authorities and complete the required formalities before the stipulated deadline.<\/p>\n<p>He said that almost every welfare scheme launched by the CM Bhagwant Singh Mann-led Punjab Government is linked to the identity of the beneficiary as a registered voter of the state. \u201cWhether it is the Mawan Dhiyan Satkar Yojana, the \u20b910 lakh health insurance scheme, food-related welfare programmes or various pension schemes, the benefits are meant for eligible residents of Punjab whose identity is duly verified,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Aman Arora said CM Bhagwant Singh Mann had also appealed to the people to ensure that their names remain on the voters\u2019 list. \u201cThe Bhagwant Mann government has launched numerous people-centric welfare schemes during the last four and a half years. We want every eligible beneficiary to continue receiving these benefits without any interruption. Therefore, it is extremely important that every genuine voter completes the verification process and safeguards their vote,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Expressing concern over the revision process, Aman Arora said the BJP had earlier misused similar exercises in other states for political gains. He asserted that the AAP does not want even a single genuine voter in Punjab to lose their voting rights.<\/p>\n<p>He appealed to all citizens not to treat the exercise merely as a voter verification process but as an important step to secure their continued access to welfare schemes and public services being provided by the Punjab Government.<\/p>\n<p>Aman Arora further informed that the AAP has deployed Booth Level Agents (BLA-1 and BLA-2) across Punjab to assist citizens in completing the verification process. \u201cAAP karyakartas are available at the booth level to help voters with any documentation or procedural requirements so that no genuine vote is deleted,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every Eligible Voter Must Complete SIR Verification to Safeguard Voting Rights &amp;
