“Terrorists and extortionists try to influence such kind of election where attacks on polling centres and snatching of results and ballot boxes take place. So, considering the facts, before the star of the electoral campaign, CMP is going to conduct the drive,” added he.
“We are going to take actions against the criminals and terrorists so that they cannot carry out any subversive activities or violence at polling centres or make any obstruction to voters on the way to the polling centres. We will start the drive to hold a free and fair election,” added Banaj.
