Repolling Begins at 7 AM in 15 West Bengal Booths

Election authorities in West Bengal have initiated a repoll in fifteen polling booths from 7 a.m. today. The decision follows reports of procedural lapses that prompted the Election Commission to order a fresh vote in the affected stations. Voters present at the booths were informed of the new schedule and instructed to cast their ballots again.

The repolling exercise is being monitored by senior officials to ensure compliance with electoral guidelines. Security personnel and polling staff have been redeployed to the fifteen locations to facilitate a smooth process and prevent any further disruptions.

The Election Commission has not disclosed the specific constituencies involved, but it emphasized that the measure is intended to uphold the integrity of the ongoing state elections. Voter turnout is expected to be closely watched as the repoll proceeds.

Authorities have urged citizens to cooperate and exercise their franchise without delay, assuring that the additional voting will be counted alongside the original results once verification is complete.
