"We have sought a detailed report from the civil aviation ministry about this complaint," he said.

Sampath told reporters that voting hours for the Lok Sabha polls have been fixed from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. for the first time in the electoral history of India.

He said this was done keeping in view the large number of voters who would be exercising their right to franchise.

The CEC put the number of voters in Jammu and Kashmir at 69.33 lakh. He said a total of 9,633 polling centres would come up in the state's six Lok Sabha constituencies.

Sampath said he met leaders of many political parties of the state during his visit.
