Heavy crowd at Munger Fort on last nomination day
On the last day of nominations, October 17, a large crowd of candidates and their supporters gathered at the Munger Fort premises, where nomination papers were being submitted. The crowd started arriving from 10 am and swelled by noon.
The district administration deployed both district and central police forces to maintain order and ensure compliance with the Model Code of Conduct. However, some supporters gathered outside the premises, causing congestion and minor violations of the code. The crowd remained at the site until 6 pm.
