People are coming out to vote in large numbers, whether it is Srinagar or Chinar Bagh, everywhere there are people around, in long queues since morning. This is a history in the making. Be it the valley of Srinagar, be it the high mountain peaks from where the calls for disruption used to come, everywhere people are coming out to vote. Even in areas where there used to be calls for boycotts, there is enthusiasm among voters. It is for the world to see that how the elections can take place in J-K in a peaceful, fair manner…A large number of diplomats are also around in the area to see the assembly elections…” CEC Rajiv Kumar said.
