He said prizes would be given to those who complete 90 per cent of the seeding process before the deadline.
He directed the District Collector, P. Satyanarayana Reddy, to involve all the political parties to expedite the process.
Mr. Singh opined that the seeding process would help them maintain accurate voter list by removing fake ones.
Mr. Satayanarayana informed the Electoral Officer that they have arranged for over 300 computers to complete the work before the deadline.
