Mumbai residents face delays and long queues during voting process, with Shiv Sena and Congress raising concerns.
On May 20, as Mumbai residents turned up for voting, they faced extended wait times and slow processes amidst scorching heat. Allegations of deliberate delays were raised by Shiv Sena and Congress. Voters cited long lines, missing names on voter lists, and insufficient facilities at polling stations, sparking concerns.
While at some places people who had turned up at polling booths early in the morning left without casting their vote after waiting in line for a long time, Sena-UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray alleged that the process was slowed down deliberately.
