|July 11, 2023
Repolling conducted at 696 polling booths in 18 districts of West Bengal
-
A day after the violence-marred Panchayat polls, the West Bengal State Election Commission on Monday conducted re-polling at 696 polling booths. However, no fresh cases of violence were reported as it was under the supervision of Central Armed Police Forces (CAPF).
A senior CAPF officer informed that the re-polling was underway at 696 polling booths in 18 districts peacefully.
“There were more than 14,000 sensitive polling booths but the state administration just mentioned about 4000 such booths that led to violence at many places on Sunday. The deployment of CAPF was also not done appropriately,” he said.
“The situation was completely different during re-polling as CAPF was deployed at all 696 polling booths and there was no information of violence from anywhere till 1 pm,” he added.
Senior officers were monitoring the situation from control rooms through CCTVs and taking regular updates from each polling booth, informed another CAPF officer.
