In Jammu and Kashmir, the election authorities have seized about 95 crore rupees worth of cash and other freebies like liquor since the model code of conduct came into effect on 16th March 2024. The polling in J&K was completed on Saturday as Anantnag-Rajouri Lok Sabha Constituency voted for their candidates. While the voter turnout in the three constituencies of Kashmir has broken decades-old records, attempts were made by some candidates to influence the voters across the UT using money, liquor and other freebies, officials of the election department have said.
Election authorities have received 143 grievances via the cVIGIL app, of which over 80 have been resolved, while the remaining are under the process of resolution.
