As many as 29 companies of Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) will soon arrive in the State for handling law and order during the General Elections, reports The New Indian Express on March 14. The State Government had sought 150 companies of CAPF from the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) to ensure smooth conduct of the elections. Senior Police officers said the above requisition was made as the State expected the polls to be held in two phases as was the case in 2014. However, the Centre announced to conduct the Lok Sabha(Lower House of the Indian Parliament) and Assembly elections in four phases (April 11, 18, 23 and 29) in the State. “We were earlier expecting that the elections will be conducted in two phases. However, since the number of constituencies going to polls in four phases will be less as compared to two phases, 150 companies of CAPF are unlikely to be provided to Odisha,” a senior Police officer said.
