C'garh: Turbulent 1st phase polling
Soon after polling began at 7am on Friday in Chhattisgarh, reports of firing came in from Dantewada in Bastar. The area has been declared highly sensitive by the Election Commission because of the presence of Maoists. Six polling booths were attacked and 21 electronic voting machines were looted where voting could not take place. Repolling will take place in these centres.
