This time the Election Commission has made very rigorous preparations for the elections to be held in Tamil Nadu and especially West Bengal. The Commission’s entire focus is on ensuring that there is no disturbance or violence during voting and that people can vote without fear. Keeping this in mind, a large number of paramilitary forces have been deployed. Wherever needed, more forces will also be sent. The job of these soldiers will not only be to provide security, but will also be to create confidence among the people so that they can go to the polling booth without any fear.
This time the Election Commission is also very cautious about booth capturing and fake voting. Web casting arrangements have been made at every polling station. This means that the entire voting process will be under camera surveillance. If the camera stops even for a second during web casting or if any technical problem occurs, then re-poll can be conducted at that booth.

Re-poll arrangement
If necessary, voting can be conducted again on 25th and 27th in the first phase of elections. For the second phase, arrangements for re-poll have been made on 1st and 3rd. Its purpose is to ensure fair elections wherever there is a possibility of irregularities.
There may be an impact on the outcome of the assembly
Even after this, if the Election Commission feels that voting has not taken place properly in any assembly seat or there has been rigging, then it can stop the result of that seat. Not only this, if serious complaints are received on many seats then the results of the entire assembly can also be stopped. Amidst all these preparations, the security forces will ensure that every voter can cast his vote in a safe environment. If necessary, preparations have also been made to take the voters to the polling station under security cover.
