Districts like Bankura, Purulia, and Jhargram will go to the polls in this segment. The administration has emphasized high security in these areas to prevent any untoward incidents. Special drones and paramilitary forces will be deployed for 24\/7 surveillance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Phase 2 Details:<\/strong> The second and final phase will cover the urban heartlands, including Kolkata and its neighboring districts, along with the northern part of the state. These regions are traditionally known for high voter turnouts. The commission has introduced several digital initiatives this year to help voters locate their polling booths and check their names in the electoral rolls seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>District-wise Overview:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Phase 1:<\/strong> Bankura, Purulia, Jhargram, and West Midnapore.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Phase 2:<\/strong> Kolkata, Howrah, Hooghly, North and South 24 Parganas, and all districts of North Bengal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Strict adherence to the Model Code of Conduct (MCC) is now in effect across the state.
