Shillong: Election officials visited Klingson D. Marak at his home in South West Garo Hills on Monday. They handed him his official Enumeration Form for the state's ongoing electoral roll revision. Marak plays for the Indian National Blind Football Team. Fans call him the "Blind Messi of India."
The athlete has competed in multiple international tournaments. The district administration made the house call to prove that voting remains open to everyone. They want to ensure nobody gets left behind. The Special Intensive Revision project aims to clean up the voter lists across the region.
Officials urged all residents to file their paperwork before the deadline passes. They view this outreach as a push for better democratic participation. By including high-profile athletes like Marak, the board hopes to get more people interested in the local process.
