Amid Covid-19 surge, poll-bound Uttarakhand bans political rallies till January 16

Political rallies, dharnas and demonstrations have been banned in poll-bound Uttarakhand till January 16 in view of the rising coronavirus cases, according to an official order.

The Uttarakhand HC had recently asked the EC to see if poll rallies could be held virtually and if online voting was possible.
