He told that all the preparations regarding the counting of votes have been completed. Along with the digital lock in the strong room at the counting center, cameras have been installed at all places. The siren will start sounding whenever the lock is opened. The advantage of this will be that the candidates can see the status of their lock even while sitting at home. Due to this, the situation of transparency will be maintained, because many times people get confused that anyone can open the strong room.

Count up to 11 rounds, everyone’s share
He elaborated that the counting would be done with OCR technology. The advantage of this technique is that the machine will announce the result while counting the votes. Separate arrangements will be made for the media and supporters of the candidates. The counting will go on for 11 rounds. The counting of Mayor and Deputy Mayor will be done in different parts. Similarly, there will be a separate part for the counting of each corporator seat. AN College in Patna has been made the counting venue.
