election the capital off delhi votes today i have worked at today and 100000000 other people like me are eligible to cost their votes in this phase now ive said this before while covering the selection but i cannot repeat it often enough every time in the august award in the general election is the largest exercise in democracy in the History Of The World so of course a massive logistical challenge in the capital a law on the sly the fact that elections have been largely peaceful so far theres been a massacre the crime and all Security Forces 60000 Security Personnel bottom military forces have been deployed all across the National Capital region Liquor Stores have been shut down for treating these to ensure that no election malpractise happens the candidates dont try to distribute it to their constituents to encourage boards and theres no misbehavior the delhi metro was started 2 hours early at 4 am to facilitate that water was able to reach their pulling boards in time so of course
a massive logistical exercise is being carried out all across the country another interesting aspect about this election is that while the focus has primarily been on Prime MinisterNarendra Modis b.

coalition will have to form the government at the center when in doubt aside this c. R.
