GHMC commissioner and district election officer Ronald Rose has instructed authorities to take legal action against 2,037 assistant polling officials and 1,773 polling officials who were absent from the training session. The training was meant to prepare them for their roles on election day and for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
