Election Commission reviews poll preparedness in Meghalaya

All aspiring candidates in the ensuing Meghalaya Assembly elections next month are mandated to publicly make known prominently their criminal antecedents, if any, in both print and electronic media if they are to qualify so as to enlighten the electorate on who they are electing to the august house, chief election commissioner (CEC) Rajiv Kumar said in Shillong on Friday.

The CEC, election commissioners Arun Goel and Anup Chandra Pandey along with a team of the Election Commission of India (ECI) concluded their two-day review of the poll preparedness in Meghalaya on Friday.

Kumar said that in its effort to ensure free and fair polls in the most transparent manner possible, the ECI has taken all necessary steps in this regard by involving all government agencies to plug all possible loopholes and lacunae.
