Round 1 Of J&k Local Polls Today Amid Fear

After more than a decade, voters in J&K will elect their representatives to the state’s 79 municipal bodies in polls starting Monday.

But with barely a day to go, a resounding silence envelops most of the constituencies in the Valley. Security personnel guard the roads and buildings, and there are no banners in the markets or posters on the walls. Not many voters know who their candidates are or where the nearest polling booth is.
