Voters in the booth number 359 of Muniya Kheda village in Firozabad district have boycotted the polls on Tuesday, saying no developments have been done in the village in the past several years.

Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) and other officials have reached to the booth, that falls under Narkhi police station. They are trying to convince the voters to change their decision of boycotting the polls.
