The re-poll was ordered by the Election Commission (EC) after widespread incidents of malfunctioning of VVPAT-EVMs during the polling held on May 28.

The polling began at 7 a.m. across Bhandara, Sakoli, Arjuni-Morgaon, Tirora and Gondia assembly segments that comprise Bhandara-Gondia parliamentary seat in eastern Maharashtra.

Tuesday’s fast-paced developments also saw the Collector of Gondia Abhimanyu R. Kale — who was overseeing the Bhandara-Gondia parliamentary constituency elections — being shunted out and replaced by Kadambari S. Balkawde.

The high-stakes bye-elections to the seat, along with Palghar, remained inconclusive on Monday, amidst widespread glitches in EVM-VVPATs and allegations of foul play by all opposition parties and ruling ally Shiv Sena.
