Flying Squads Deployed for Assam By-elections
Assam Chief Electoral Officer Anurag Goel announced that nine flying squad teams have been deployed in five districts, including Nagaon and Bongaigaon, ahead of the November 13 by-elections. With the Model Code of Conduct in effect, over 9 lakh voters will cast their votes in 1,078 polling stations across five constituencies. The first randomisation of EVMs will occur on October 19, with the second on November 1. These by-elections follow the shift of MLAs to parliamentary roles after the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
