What FACTLY found

The video depicts a mock poll conducted before the actual election in Assam’s Karimganj Lok Sabha constituency in April 2024. The votes cast during this mock poll were cleared before the actual voting began. The concerned authorities clarified the same. As the agent violated ECI rules by carrying a mobile phone into the polling station, the presiding officer has been suspended.
