Picture for representational purpose only. GUWAHATI: The state election authority has asked deputy commissioners of all districts to treat officials, who would be engaged in election duty, as frontline workers (FLW), and prepare their list for registering in the Co-WIN portal for immediate vaccination. Immunization spokesperson and director of health services (family welfare), Munindra Nath Ngatey, informed TOI on Wednesday that the vaccination of poll officials would begin within a week, as they need to be administered both doses before they fan out to different booths. Elections in Assam are likely to be held in April. Had it not been election time in Assam, many categories of workers would have got enlisted for the jab at a later date. But because of the forthcoming polls, anybody and everybody associated with the process would get the shot immediately. The government has already categorised police, revenue, disaster management, panchayat and rural development department officials as FLWs. Teachers from schools and higher educational institutions have now been included in the FLW list.
