Despite challenges posed by barbed wire fencing along the India-Bangladesh border, around 2,500 voters crossed over to cast their votes in Tripura during the Lok Sabha polls on April 19. These voters, historically isolated due to the fencing, expressed eagerness to participate in democracy's festival. Security was heightened, and authorities ensured smooth facilitation of voting. Residents lauded the cooperation received, with many already having cast their votes. The turnout is expected to surpass 80%, according to Returning Officer Dr. Vishal Kumar, reflecting the determination of citizens to exercise their franchise despite obstacles.
