ECI orders re-polling at single polling booth in Ajmer on May 2

The Election Commission of India on Tuesday ordered re-polling at one polling booth in Nandasi village under the Ajmer Lok Sabha constituency in Rajasthan, scheduled for May 2.

 

This decision follows the polling conducted on April 26 during the second phase of the Lok Sabha elections.

 

Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) Praveen Gupta said that the misplacement of the 17-A register, where voters sign, led to the necessity of re-polling. The returning officer has already taken appropriate action against the responsible polling officials for this oversight.

 

Gupta confirmed that the re-polling will take place on Thursday, May 2, from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the designated booth, situated under polling station No. 195 of the Masuda Assembly segment.

 

Gupta also reassured that the poll officials have made all the preparations for the re-polling as per the instructions of the ECI.
