Mysore/Mysuru: Villagers of Yeligehundi in Mysuru taluk, coming under Chamundeshwari Constituency, who had boycotted polls yesterday citing lack of civic amenities in the village, finally exercised their franchise after the authorities promised to address the issues raised by them.
Alleging that Yeligehundi was lacking in basic amenities and infrastructure, the villagers stayed away from voting, which began at 7 am yesterday. Upon learning to know of the boycott, Tahsildar Girish, Kadakola Town Municipal Council (TMC) official and other staff rushed to the village to convince the villagers to withdraw their poll boycott.
