The poll panel emphasized that the entire poll exercise involves thousands of personnel, including booth-level agents appointed by political parties.

In a letter emailed to Rahul Gandhi on June 12 in response to his article in a leading daily alleging "match-fixing" in the Maharashtra polls, the EC said the entire election process is conducted in a decentralized manner at the assembly constituency level. It said the process involved more than 1,00,186 booth-level officers (BLOs), 288 electoral registration officers (EROs), 139 general observers, 41 police observers, 71 expenditure observers and 288 returning officers (ROs) appointed by the EC, according to officials.
