Peaceful re-poll on at two Delhi centres

Re-polling is underway at two different polling stations in the Delhi Cantt and Rohtash Nagar assembly constituencies, an official said Monday.

"The Election Commission (EC) had ordered re-polling at two places - Delhi Cantt and Gokulpur - of these constituencies after going through reports of the observers," he said adding that there were reports of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) not working properly in these areas.

The electors and the officials concerned were informed before hand and all required arrangements were also made in time, he said.

The results of the re-polling will also be announced Tuesday along with results of other constituencies, he said.

The timings for casting a ballot remains the same as it was Feb 7 that is from 8.00 a.m. to 6.00 p.m, he said.

Elaborate security arrangements are in place at both the polling booths and the polling is on without any untoward incident, he added.
