Crowding found at distribution centres where COVID-19 norms couldn’t be strictly followed
COVID-19 protocol at the poll material distribution centres in the district was confined to wearing face masks and the intermittent use of hand sanitisers on Monday. While large crowds began to swarm the 14 distribution centres spread across the district as early as 8 a.m., little effort was made to streamline the entry and exit of polling officers. Besides, the delay in allotting buses for the officials to reach their assigned polling stations resulted in a long wait for many officials at the centres.More Related News
