Repolling began on Saturday in 15 polling stations across two Assembly constituencies in West Bengal’s South 24 Parganas district, following allegations of Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) tampering that sparked a political row.
The Election Commission of India ordered fresh polling in booths located in the Diamond Harbour and Magrahat Paschim segments. Voting is underway from 7 am to 6 pm, covering 11 booths in Magrahat Paschim and four in Diamond Harbour. A decision on whether repolling will be extended to additional booths in Falta is still pending.
