Hyderabad: As Telangana prepares for the Lok Sabha polls scheduled to be held tomorrow, it is crucial for people to know the polling stations and the list of valid documents for voting.
Possessing a voter ID card alone doesn’t qualify a person for voting; individuals must visit the designated polling station based on their address.
