They complained of lack of ventilation, drinking water and toilet facilities
Officials in a few polling stations in the city and Tiruvallur district had to undergo an unpleasant experience due to lack of ventilation and toilet facilities. They expressed their displeasure over working under such circumstances.
In one of the polling booths in Choolaimedu, a woman polling official said, “I had to stay here last night. The toilet facility here is so poor and I felt so uncomfortable bathing here at 4 a.m. At the time of such a pandemic, nearly 10 persons are sitting very close to each other in a very small space.”
