The fate of the contesting candidates which are effectively sealed now in the ballot boxes will be opened tomorrow. All required arrangements for smooth counting of votes are in place. Elaborate security arrangement has been made considering the sensitivity of the district. Tirap Deputy Commissioner and District Election Officer Dr Sachin Shinde is personally supervising all the arrangements to ensure error-free counting process.
