With no wave in favour of any particular party, all political leaders are going allout to win the voters. Now Uttar Pradesh BJP used surprised all by writing to the Election Commission requesting it to deploy women police officials at the booths to check the  identity of burqa-clad women during the  identity of burqa-clad women.


BJP alleged that many burqa clad women will come to cast their vote and argued “Hence deployment of women police personnel will be justified so that voter’s ID could be checked properly and no fake person/woman could cast a vote. It is requested to deploy women police staff at polling booths in sixth and seventh phases of election,” 


An EC official on anonmity said “Only the Presiding Officer and his team of polling officers are permitted to identify a voter with the help of the election card or photo voter slip. However, rules permit the Presiding Officer to rope in a local woman to identify a pardasheen woman and even frisk her, if needed. This local attendant is also expected to assist female voters in voting. A pardasheen woman is not necessarily a Muslim. In villages, Hindu women wear long ghunghat and the assistance of a woman attendant is required to identify them as well,”
