Election Commission Orders Repoll at Three Agra Teachers' Constituency Stations
The Election Commission of India (ECI) has ordered a repoll at three polling stations (20, 21, and 26) in the Agra Division Teachers' Constituency following allegations of irregularities during the October 23 Uttar Pradesh Legislative Council election. The earlier poll was declared void under the Representation of the People Act, 1951. The ECI directed that individuals involved in unlawful activities not be assigned election duties for the repoll scheduled on October 26. The Samajwadi Party, led by Akhilesh Yadav, raised concerns about voter list discrepancies and booth capturing, prompting investigations and disciplinary actions against election officials.
