Punjab Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Sibin C. said during the meeting, the ECI team directed states to enhance vigilance on their borders and the state authorities assured they would further strengthen inter-state coordination for a smooth electoral process.
The EC team specifically stressed the need for vigilance over the inter-state check posts to check the cross-border movement of illicit cash, liquor, drugs, or freebies.
The CEO said the ECI team was informed that state officials have been asked to step up seizures with support from adjoining border states and instil the fear of administration among violators to conduct a free and fair election.
