Huzurabad Assembly Constituency Returning Officer Ch Ravinder Reddy has called upon all political parties, the candidates and the counting agents to extend their cooperation to ensure smooth conduct of the counting of votes polled in Saturday’s bypoll to Huzurabad Assembly seat, scheduled for November 2.
Speaking to reporters here on Sunday morning, Mr Reddy said the Huzurabad by-election saw a high voter turnout of 86.64% owing to active participation of voters in the by-election.
During the mock poll early on Saturday morning, a voter-verifiable paper audit trail (VVPAT) unit developed a technical glitch in polling station number 200, he said, adding that the defective VVPAT was replaced with another VVPAT kept in the reserve by the sectoral officer.
