Jayalalithaa slams EC decision on repoll in TN

She expressed surprise that the Election Commission has taken a decision to repoll after a gap of 12 days as 39 Lok Sabha constituencies went to polls on April 24 in the State.

She complained that enough time have not been given for sufficient publicity to enable the voters of these two polling stations to turn out in large numbers and participate in the polling process.

Yesterday, the Election Commission ordered repoll in two polling stations of Salem North Assembly segment in Salem and another booth in Tiruchengodu in Namakkal following malfunction of EVMs.
