Ballot papers to be used in Madhya Pradesh civic polls
Bhopal, Nov 3 (IANS) Ballot papers would be used, instead of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), in the civic polls slated before Dec 20 in Madhya Pradesh, the state Election Commissioner said Tuesday.
Election Commissioner A.V. Singh told reporters here that elections would be held in two phases to 268 of the 358 civic bodies in the state and the dates for these would be announced next week.
The elections to the remaining 90 civic bodies would not be held now due to some legal hurdles, he added.
Singh said the voters’ lists and other election-related work would be completed before the announcement of the election dates.
The election code of conduct, he said, would come into effect after the announcement of the date of the elections, he stressed.
