A woman voter is screened before entering the voting booth.

Polling has been going on smoothly in Rajabala LAC so far. Polling began in Rajabala with high turnout by women in first two hours . Two VVPATs replaced due to malfunction. The 2 VVPAT replaced due to error were at Batabari and old Baitbari.
