Apart from this, he will also speak about the distribution of election materials across the country, the overall security arrangements at 42,659 polling stations. He will highlight the deployment of 958,000 members of the law enforcement agencies, installation of CCTV cameras at polling stations and ensuring a fair environment through drone surveillance.
