I am surprised that you live 14 kms from the polling booth. This is unusual.

Subject: Re: [AI] My voting experience Hi all, My dear friends With great regret yesterday I could not vote. The main reason for this was that I got the information transport facility will be provide for the PWD candidate on behalf of Election Commission of India. Friends, I would like to tell you that 2 months ago I registered on PWD App, because my current home location so far away from polling booth station. Guys Its about 14 km, so I registered on PWD app. I regularly checked status on PWD app, But I did not get any feedback on PWD app till May 12. Friends I realised that the PWD App by Election Commission of India is useless for us. Now you tell us what the advantage of the PWD App? I feel very happy that Mr. Amit Bhatt or all vh friends has voted successfully. Regards Arif >From Delhi India.
