Now on Sunday, the District Collector and Returning Officer again notified the new final voting figure for Nagpur which is now 54.30 percent. Such revisions do take place as voting continues beyond the official time of 6 pm, as voters turn-up quite late to exercise their franchise.

This happens mostly due to heat as elections normally take place in summer and voters tend to avoid afternoon time. So, the polling parties’ closing time gets delayed even as the district administration compiles the voting percentage that gets revised from time to time.
