Srinagar: Voting began on Monday for the re-poll of the District Development Council (DDC) election in Drugmulla in north Kashmir’s Kupwara district amid high security.

Amid chilling cold, very few voters were seen queuing up outside polling stations as voting began at 7 a.m. in the morning and was to end at 2 pm given the prevailing cold wave conditions.

An official said that a multi-layered security set-up was put in place as part of an elaborate security plan for protection of polling booths, handling of law-and-order problems and thwarting the designs of anti-national elements to disrupt the polls and also to instil a sense of confidence among voters for ensuring free, fair, transparent and smooth conduct of elections.
