High-Voltage Drama In Kolkata
Tensions prevailed in parts of Kolkata’s Bhabanipur area after allegations involving EVM-related security arrangements. The incident triggered political reactions, although officials maintained that all electronic voting machines are secure and under strict surveillance.
The Election Commission of India has already put in place enhanced security measures for counting day, including a QR code-based entry system for authorised personnel. The system is part of a three-layer security setup designed to ensure strict access control at counting centres.
With preparations intensifying and political activity picking up pace, all eyes are now on May 4, when results will decide the next political direction for several key states.
