The Election Commission of India has ordered repolling at 15 polling booths across West Bengal's South 24 Parganas district, including 11 in Magrahat Paschim and four in Diamond Harbour.
The repolling is scheduled to take place on May 2 between 7 am and 6 pm, following reports of electoral malpractices at certain polling stations in both constituencies.
The Election Commission had received requests for repolling in a total of 77 booths across four constituencies following the second phase of polling, though it remains unclear whether voting will be ordered again in the remaining 62 booths.
Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar has directed Special Observer Subrata Gupta to conduct on-ground inspections before any decision is taken on the remaining 62 booths.
