"There are over 100 polling centres affected due to floods in Balha Assembly seat. We have taken certain flood control measures in these areas and will review the situation by August 29 before giving our report," District Magistrate Satyendra Singh said.
BJP state president Lakshmi Kant Bajpai had yesterday written a letter to the EC requesting it to postpone the bypolls to Balha and Nighasan seats in the wake of flood situation in Bahraich and Lakhimpur districts.
