The full story
During the third phase of panchayat elections in Rajasthan, residents in Bharatpur and Deeg districts staged a boycott of polling stations. According to reports, villagers at Nagla Singhara in Bharatpur and Nagla Kishore Singh in Deeg withheld their votes to protest against delimitation decisions. Protesters alleged that these territorial revisions were executed under political pressure, resulting in their localities being assigned to different village panchayats. The election boycott took place alongside the broader third phase of Panchayati Raj voting conducted across 27 districts of the state. The sources did not mention any official response or statements from authorities regarding the specific boycott by these villagers.
