Fear psychosis grips residents of Poonch and Rajouri after two terror attacks within just 15 days ahead of the election. It was the second terror attack in poll-bound Pir Panchal region of Jammu province where terrorists attacked soldiers after repeated intervals.
After some political parties approached the Election Commission of India to delay polling on the Anantnag-Rajouri seat, the poll panel sought a detailed report from the J&K government.
Spread over four districts of J&K, there are 340 susceptible polling stations in this Lok Sabha constituency. Some polling stations are set up just near the Indo-Pak border.
