In the aftermath of violence and damage to Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) during the initial phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha and state assembly elections in Arunachal Pradesh, the Election Commission of India (ECI) has ordered repolling in eight polling stations on Wednesday, April 24. The polling stations scheduled for repolling are located in the Bameng, Nyapin, Nacho, and Rumgong assembly constituencies across East Kameng, Kurung Kumey, Upper Subansiri, and Siang districts. Around 76.44% of the total 8,92,694 voters cast their votes on April 19 to choose 50 MLAs out of the 60-member assembly in the northeastern state. This development follows similar incidents in Manipur, where repolling was conducted in 11 polling stations due to violence during the first phase of the Lok Sabha elections.
