​Vikarabad: Joint Collector of Vikarabad Aruna Kumari appealed district political leaders to extend their support for peaceful conduct of forthcoming elections. She held a meeting at her chamber with leaders of various recognised political parties to discuss conduct of elections, here on Wednesday.

Speaking on the occasion, Joint Collector said that there are 7,97,324 voters in the district. Anyone who is 18 years old as on January 01, 2018 can register as voter, she said. Voter registration can be done before the final publication of electoral roll on October 08.
