, || Who benefits from low voter turnout?||
All arrangements have been put in place to enable a total of 74.67 lakh voters in 150 divisions to exercise their franchise across 9,101 polling stations to elect their representatives for the civic body
The Distribution, Reception & Counting (DRC) Centres across the city bustled with hectic activity on Monday, where polling officials reported to collect ballot boxes and polling material. A total of 18,202 ballot boxes, escorted by the officials, have been dispatched to the respective polling booths through 2,671 specially arranged vehicles.
Polling percentage remained at just about 30% even at 4 p.m., only two hours before the deadline.
While the polling has been largely uneventful unlike the Assembly polls in 2018 when complaints of missing voter names and faulty EVMs abounded, the number of voters has only been a trickle at the majority of the polling stations.
This time, the elections were conducted through the paper ballot, hence EVM malfunction was not a problem.
