Vote for new India: First phase of polling begins
More than 76 lakh voters from six constituencies — five in Assam and one in Tripura — will kick off the country's nine-phase general elections on April 7, as weeks of hectic campaigning came to an end on Saturday evening.
In the first phase, voters in five constituencies in Assam — Lakhimpur, Tezpur, Kaliabor, Jorhat and Dibrugarh — will elect their MPs. A total of 1,221 polling stations will be in operation, out of which 8,588 are hypersensitive and will see a higher deployment of security forces. In Tripura West constituency, state chief electoral officer Ashutosh Jindal said a three-tier security arrangement has been made across the state for peaceful election. The Indo-Bangladesh international border in Tripura has been sealed to prevent any cross-border infiltration during the election process.
