Prem Lal, one of 29 booth-level officers in Himachal Pradesh’s Lahaul-Spiti district, arrives early Thursday morning in icy conditions. Assigned to Tashigang, a village at 15,256 feet, Lal and his team are set to manage the world’s highest polling station. Tashigang, near the India-China Line of Actual Control, falls under the Mandi Lok Sabha seat. This election sees Bollywood star Kangana Ranaut (BJP) against Vikramaditya Singh (Congress). The Tashigang polling station, serving 62 voters from Tashigang and Gete, is designated as a model booth. Lal joins his colleagues, prepared for the demanding days ahead.
