Hyderabad surpasses itself in low voter turnout of 40.88%

The polling percentage labouriously crawled to 40.88% in Hyderabad district as updated on the Election Commission’s app when checked at 8 p.m. This is way worse than the 50.31% recorded during the previous Assembly elections in 2018.

It was only a trickle of voters at a large number of polling stations across the 15 constituencies, with very few exceptions.
