Heavy polling in 5th phase of UP elections

By IANS,

Lucknow : The fifth round of polling in UP’s seven-phased assembly elections in 49 constituencies witnessed a 59.4 percent turnout, an official said.

“Today’s turnout was an impressive 59.4 percent. In fact, it would have gone even higher if more voters had stepped out of their homes in Kanpur, where the polling was 52 percent,” state chief electoral officer Umesh Sinha told IANS.
