Maneka Gandhi To Mehbooba Mufti, Key Leaders Taking Poll Test Today

A total of 889 candidates from six states and a Union Territory are going to polls in the sixth phase today.

The Supreme Court has adjourned - till after the Lok Sabha election - pleas seeking release of voter turnout data as contained in Form 17C and Form 17C (Part II), including votes polled and/or rejected, within 48 hours of end of polling in a booth.

Slogans to boycott the Lok Sabha elections were found on the walls at multiple places on Delhi University campus on Thursday, the police said, adding that two FIRs have been lodged in this connection.

In the sixth phase, which will be held on May 25, there are 271 candidates aged between 25 and 40 while 436 are in the 41-60 age range.

Days before the sixth phase of polling, a woman has been killed after some bike-borne men opened fire at her house in Nandigram, which comes under the Tamluk Lok Sabha constituency in West Bengal.

RJD president Lalu Prasad's daughter Rohini Acharya has been named in one of the FIRs registered in connection with "irregularities" during polling in Bihar's Saran Lok Sabha constituency and post-poll clashes leading to the death of one person.
