<h1>Border security measures to prevent anti-social elements and illicit goods aim to ensure inducement-free polling.</h1> The Election Commission directed a coordinated enforcement strategy: state chief secretaries, police chiefs and border forces must implement heightened vigilance in border districts, intensify interstate checks, seal vulnerable border points, and ensure compliance with voter-facilitation directions while central agencies act on actionable intelligence to maximise seizures of narcotics, liquor, arms, unaccounted money and voter inducements to support an inducement-free election.
