Election Commission (EC) observers have asked the police to deploy one local individual who is well-acquainted with the area at each polling station to ensure a thorough understanding of the local context. Ahead of the Telangana Assembly elections on November 30, District Election Officer (DEO) Ronald Rose and City Police Commissioner Sandeep Shandilya briefed the EC observers on the comprehensive measures being undertaken to ensure an incident-free polling day.
The briefing was held at the Telangana State Police Integrated Command and Control Center (TSPICCC), highlighting key strategies.
Mr.Rose delineated the implementation of webcasting, facilitating real-time monitoring of polling stations, and strategically situating micro observers at critical polling stations. “The vehicles responsible for transporting Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) would be equipped with GPS tracking systems,” he said.
