Regarding counting the period of election duty on polling staff on the second day of polling / re-polling
Important Link
Regarding the general elections of 6 Municipal Corporations, 81 Municipalities, 31 District Panchayats, 231 Taluka Panchayats and by-elections of 2 seats of Junagadh Municipal Corporation and by-elections of vacant seats of other local bodies. The program is announced on 23/1/2021.
In local body elections, election duty personnel usually arrive at the receiving center late at night after polling on the day of polling or early the next morning if the distance is too high to return the polling materials. In the current Covid-19 epidemic situation, in some cases, there may be a delay in the arrival of polling teams at the receiving center in stages. Therefore, considering the relatively long tenure of the election staff on duty and the difficulty in attending their office on the second day of polling, the election duty staff on the second day of polling will have to consider this day as their duty attendance if they cannot be present at their original office. The State Election Commission has decided not to be present at the original office.
The above instructions will also apply in case of re-polling. No additional allowance can be levied for this period.
