Heavy voting took place in West Bengal
If we look at the voting figures of all the seven phases, West Bengal was in the top-2 in the first, third and fourth phases. The highest voting took place here in the 5th, 6th and 7th phases. Odisha and Tripura were also among the states with the highest voting. At the same time, Bihar was the only state which was among the top-3 lagging states in terms of the lowest voting in every phase. In the first, fourth, 5th and 7th phases, the voters of Bihar voted the least compared to all other states. Uttar Pradesh was also not behind in showing indifference in voting. This state topped in terms of the lowest voting in the second, third and sixth phases of voting. There was also less voting in Maharashtra.
Jammu and Kashmir made a record
Voting in Jammu and Kashmir seats was also less as compared to some other states. But, voting in three seats of this union territory made a record. Here, the highest voting took place in the last 35 years. In this respect, this state remained on top despite low voting. Regarding the overall low voting this time, the commission officials say that counting is yet to be done. On the day of counting, postal ballot votes are also counted. After this, the number of votes cast in each phase will increase further. After this, even if the voting this time does not reach more than 67 percent in 2019, it will not be much less than that either.
