The holding of timely election is the "essence of maintaining democratic governance," the Election Commission said today, explaining its decision to go ahead with elections in five states amid a raging third wave of Covid driven by the highly infectious Omicron variant. To ensure safety, the Commission has barred physical rallies, roadshows and public meetings till January 15, saying a review will be taken after that since the "ground situation is dynamic".
