The Election Commission of India has ordered repolling at four booths in Madhya Pradesh's Betul Lok Sabha seat following a bus fire carrying polling staff and EVMs. The incident prompted the directive after a report from the district administration. Repolling will occur in Chikhlimal, Dudar Raiyat, Kunda Raiyat, and Rajapur of the Multai assembly segment. Betul's Collector, Narendra Suryavanshi, confirmed preparations are underway, with liquor shops to close within a 3 km radius of polling stations. The move aims to ensure a fair electoral process after the unfortunate mishap.
