The SPs were asked open control rooms in the vicinity of counting centres equipped with VHF, PA system and other communication equipments.

The counting of votes this time may continue till late evening. In view of this, the DGP asked the SPs to make additional arrangement of lighting and drinking water for the public outside the counting centre premises.

The DGP discussed the manpower deployment plan for the counting centres. Proper barricading of counting centres as well as outside to check massive public gathering, traffic regulation around counting centres.

It was decided that CCTV cameras will be installed both inside and outside the counting centre and provision of VHF and public address system will be made at each centre.
