A nodal officer of the Election Commission in charge of EVMs and VVPATs posted at Krishnagar under Ranaghat parliamentary constituency of West Bengal is missing for over 24 hours, police said Friday.
Arnab Roy(30) left his official quarters here for his poll duty at Bipradas Choudhury Polytechnic College Thursday morning but was not spotted since afternoon, a senior Nadia police officer told PTI.
His vehicle was, however, found parked outside the college here, he said.
Election Commission special observer in West Bengal Ajay Naik told journalists, "I have been told that he is not around. But I think his missing has something to do with his personal life."
