Vicky Nanjappa @ Varanasi: EC says no campaign material will be allowed 100 meters near the booth. Unwarranted assembly of people will not be allowed. Only one polling agent per candidate allowed at the booth.
EC officials say that all EVMs in Varanasi have been checked and are working fine.
"We have gone out of our way to ensure a free and fair poll," says special observer Praveen Kumar.
"All security measures are in place. More importantly we want all to get a chance to vote and there should be no violence."
