                                   (Chartered Accountants)

No. 54-EL(1)/13/2015: Whereas vide Notification No. 54-EL(1)/2/2015 dated 3rd
September, 2015, 16th December, 2015 to 8th January, 2016 were notified as the dates of
counting of votes and 11th January, 2016 for declaration of result. And whereas, due to
incessant rains and consequent flooding in Chennai and other parts of the Southern Region,
the polling was postponed to 18th and 19th December, 2015 in certain polling booths in
Southern Region vide Notification No. 54-EL(1)/12/2015 dated 7th December, 2015. Arising
out of postponement of dates of polling, it would be difficult for the office to monitor and
conduct the tasks of counting of votes and polling in certain locations in Southern Region
simultaneously.
