Re-polling commenced at eight polling stations across four assembly segments in four districts of Arunachal Pradesh. The re-poll began at 6 am and is scheduled to continue until 2 pm.
The Election Commission of India (ECI) ordered the re-poll at these stations after declaring the initial polling conducted on April 19 void due to reports of violence and booth snatching.
