Nandigram, October 6 (Daily Kiran) : Voting is underway in Nandigram, West Bengal, for the by-elections taking place on October 6. The administration is on high alert, and so far, there have been no significant reports of unrest.
Anshuman Saha, the Superintendent of Police in Nandigram, stated, “Currently, we have no specific reports of disturbances. We received some inputs about crowds gathering in certain areas, but we promptly addressed those situations. Voters are casting their ballots without any major issues. Long queues have formed at several polling stations, and the voting process is proceeding smoothly.”
At booth number 79 in Nandanayak Bar Primary School, voters expressed satisfaction with the voting process. One voter remarked, “Voting is going well, and there are no problems.” Another added, “Our village needs development. There should be no illegal activities. Development is taking place here.”
A voter emphasized their choice was driven by a desire for progress, stating, “We expect the winning candidates to initiate new projects and contribute to the development of Nandigram.”
Meanwhile, BJP Rajya Sabha member Samik Bhattacharya claimed, “This time, we expect to win Nandigram by a margin five times greater than before. In the minority-dominated seat of Rejendranagar, where it is said that minorities do not support the BJP, you will see a different outcome this time. Our party workers will ensure a victory there as well.”
It is worth noting that voting is also taking place in Rejendranagar today. Long lines have been observed at polling stations in Nandigram since early morning.
