Andhra Pradesh conducts fresh polling at 12 stations across six urban bodies

Fresh polling began at 12 polling stations spread across six urban local bodies in Andhra Pradesh as part of electoral procedures in the state. The repolling exercise follows standard electoral commission protocols to ensure democratic participation and transparent conduct of urban body elections.

Pulivendula Municipality accounted for a significant portion of the repolling activity, with four polling stations designated for fresh voting. The stations covered Ward Nos. 1, 3, 7 and 8, enabling residents from these electoral divisions to participate in the voting process.

The repolling operations were conducted in adherence to established electoral guidelines and procedures. Officials oversaw the process to maintain poll integrity and ensure that voting regulations were strictly followed across all designated stations.

Such repolling exercises are typically undertaken when initial polling encounters procedural irregularities or administrative challenges that necessitate a fresh round of voting. The measure ensures that all eligible voters in the affected wards have adequate opportunity to exercise their franchise in urban local body elections.
