Delhi Chief Electoral Officer P. Krishnamurthy has appealed to all eligible voters to participate in large numbers ahead of the sixth phase of voting for Lok Sabha elections on Saturday. The Delhi CEO conducted an inspection of two polling centres in the New Delhi area today to review the preparedness and arrangements.

Mr Krishnamurthy encouraged every voter to exercise their franchise irrespective of the weather conditions. To ensure a comfortable voting experience despite the extreme heat, comprehensive arrangements have been made at all polling stations. Shaded areas have been set up at each polling station, and the waiting areas are fully covered. Coolers and fans have been installed to mitigate any discomfort. For the first time in the Delhi elections, paramedical staff equipped with basic medical kits will be stationed at all polling locations. Volunteers will assist elderly voters, and sign language experts will be available to ensure that disabled voters have a smooth voting experience.
