Vadodara: The polling parties for the Panchmahal Lok Sabha seat were rather amused or even pleasantly stunned after they found this packet along with the polling material handed over to them on Monday. The packet incorporated toiletries that they might use at the polling day on Tuesday.
The district administration had incorporated a packet that contained toothbrushes, shampoo and hair oil sachets, combs and mosquito repellents for each and every of the polling legitimate deployed at a booth. It was once for the first time that such an initiative was once taken for the polling officers.
Said Panchmahal district collector and district election officer Udit Agarwal, “The polling parties reach the polling stations an afternoon prior to the elections and stay there. They sleep there and need to get able at the polling stations itself before the voting begins. We thought this gesture would help them.” The polling parties are supplied with mattresses and dinner at the polling station itself.
Agarwal mentioned that the distribution would also make sure that the polling officers did not have to seek any gratification from the native residents on this entrance. “Often they have to depend on locals for such needs, but this does away with the likelihood,” he added.
Girish Patel, a polling legitimate on accountability at Godhra, mentioned that he had worked in 3 elections so far. “But this is the first time that something like this has came about. While we come ready to sleep and get able within the morning, anyone would possibly just fail to remember wearing something,” he mentioned.
Another polling legitimate Neha Patel mentioned that it was once for the first time that she was once exercising election duties. “I did not know that even such small needs can be sorted,” she mentioned.
