West Kameng district election officer Akriti Sagar, who chaired the meeting, directed all the sector officers to physically visit their respective polling stations and ensure that they have all the facilities for conducting the voting process smoothly.

If there are any infrastructure issues, such as shifting of polling booths or renaming, they should be reported as early as possible so that issues can be resolved in time, she said.

“We should not believe in any rumours, and if there is any doubt, it must be clarified with respective returning officers,” she added.
