Kottayam, April 11 -- Kottayam District Election Officer and District Collector Chetan Kumar Meena has dismissed media reports alleging that Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) personnel pointed guns at election officials near the strong room at Baselius College, where voting machines of the Vaikom Assembly constituency are stored.
The Collector termed the reports "completely baseless" and said they do not reflect the actual situation. He clarified that certain concerns had arisen regarding the custody of strong room keys, following which he personally visited the site along with General Observers.
