Kohima: Kohima officials gathered at the Deputy Commissioner’s office on August 19 to organize the Media Cell for the 2026 Special Intensive Revision of the Photo Electoral Roll. The meeting set the ground rules. Deputy Commissioner B. Henok Buchem chaired the session to brief staff on their duties during the revision.
The team mapped out a plan for press releases, social media management, and media monitoring. They need to keep the public informed. Members prioritized strategies to kill fake news and misleading content before it spreads. They demanded the timely release of verified facts regarding the electoral timelines and procedures.
The group also explored ways to boost outreach efforts. They plan to lean on the District Icon and other media channels to get the word out. As the DIPR report stated, officials focused on "measures to counter fake news, misinformation and misleading content related to the SIR process." Everyone involved must keep the messaging sharp and consistent to ensure voters stay updated.
