Power of one

NEW DELHI: It may be the world���s largest democracy with a 71.4-crore electorate, but the election commission is making sure that every vote counts.

And this is why a whole polling station will be set up in Una assembly constituency in Junagadh district of Gujarat for just one voter, reports Our Political Bureau.

The polling station is located in the Gir forest area, home to the Asiatic lion, and has a voter list with a single name. It belongs to the priest of a temple within the forest reserve.

Sharing such interesting facts with mediapersons here, CEC N Gopalaswami said that there is also a two-voter polling station carved out in Bharatpur Sonhat assembly segment of Korba Lok Sabha constituency in Chhattisgarh.

Arunachal Pradesh has three polling stations with three electors each.
