Voters have "a right to know from where [the money for] freebies [will] come", the Election Commission said Monday morning as it announced dates for the Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Telangana, Chhattisgarh and Mizoram Assembly elections.

The final round of polls for the year begins in Mizoram on 7 November and ends in Telangana on 30 November. Results are due 3 December. "Announcements of freebies always have 'tadka' of populism... the public has a right to know from where [the money for] freebies [will] come," Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar said. Mr Kumar also said that nearly 1,000 checkpoints had been set up along state borders to check the flow of liquor, cash and drugs. "There will be zero tolerance for use of money power and there will be strict vigil over suspicious online cash transfers...," he told reporters on Monday morning.
