Counting of votes for Ramgarh poll today

January 31, 2019 01:06 am | Updated 01:06 am IST - Alwar

Counting of votes in the Ramgarh Assembly constituency of Rajasthan’s Alwar district, which went to poll on January 28, will take place on Thursday.

As many as 20 candidates contested the election, which could not be held along with the other constituencies due to the death of the BSP candidate ahead of the December 7 Assembly polls.

“Counting will be held at Arts College in Ramgarh tomorrow. There will be a total of 20 rounds starting 8 a.m. amid tight security arrangements,” Ramgarh Returning Officer Pankaj Sharma said on Wednesday.

Ramgarh has 2.35 lakh voters that include 1.10 lakh female voters.

A victory on the seat will help the Congress touch 100 in the 200-member House, reducing its dependence on support from other non-BJP parties.
