Whose hand is the huge postal ballot vote?

The elections held in andhra pradesh this time are looking very interesting. It was surprising that postal ballots were coming in huge numbers like never before.

Later, 25 thousand 283 people in nandyala district and 24 thousand 918 people in kadapa district used the method of voting through postal ballot.

Those on election duty used this postal ballot. Along with them, 13,700 senior citizens above 85 years of age and 12,700 disabled persons exercised their right to vote through postal ballot in the home voting system which was introduced for the first time.

Officials expect that the polling process may be delayed due to the large number of postal ballot votes in each constituency. A lot of care needs to be taken while counting the postal ballot. Each postal ballot has to be shown to the candidate agents present and then it is decided whether it is valid or not.
