As the final phase of the Lok Sabha election is nearing to end on June 1, people are eagerly looking forward to seeing how the result turns out. Meanwhile, preparations are intensifying for the counting of votes for the Lok Sabha elections on June 4. In the Chandni Chowk Lok Sabha constituency, large screens will be set up in various markets and key locations to broadcast live news of the vote counting. This event is being organized by market associations and several social organizations.
With markets remaining open on June 4, traders will be occupied at their shops and unable to keep up with real-time updates on the counting. To address this, trader organisations have decided to display live counting updates on large screens at important locations in their area, a move that has been welcomed by the trader community.
