With Mumbai University (MU) Senate elections prompting renewed voter registration, its Election Department has implemented changes to the registration process. Among other changes, the new system will allow applicants to modify applications until the deadline. The system with new changes, demanded by student organisations, will be available soon. Following demands from students and political youth wings, the process has also been shifted online completely, clarified the MU Election Department in a circular.
A re-registration of voters was recommended by a three-member committee, chaired by R S Mali, former VC of the Bahinabai Chaudhari Uttar Maharashtra University, Jalgaon, on October 25 after concerns over the final electoral roll were raised by BJP MLA Ashish Shelar. It said that was an error in the voter list prepared for the poll (graduate constituency). Hence, the MU’s management council decided to make a new one. The process began on October 30 and will continue till November 30.
