Srinagar Polling for the seventh phase of the District Development Council (DDC) elections in Jammu and Kashmir started on a boring notice as freezing climate situations in the Valley stored most individuals indoors early on Wednesday, officers mentioned.
Polling for 31 DDC seats — 13 in Kashmir division and 18 in Jammu division — started at 7 a.m. However, there have been little exercise round polling stations early on as a consequence of sub-zero temperatures in most locations of Kashmir Valley and a few components of Chenab Valley.
Officials mentioned voter turnout is predicted to choose up later in the day because the polling is scheduled to conclude at 2 p.m.
Nearly 6.87 lakh voters are eligible to train their franchise at 1,852 polling stations. Besides the DDC elections, polling can be being held for panch and sarpach posts in the Union Territory.
