New Delhi, March 11 With the announcement of the Lok Sabha elections 2024 around the corner, the Election Commission (EC) on Monday held a meeting with its observers, including officials from the police, general administration, and expenditure departments.

The meeting was attended by over 2,000 officials, including from the IAS, the IPS, and the IRS.

"In the run-up to General Elections 2024, ECI today organised a briefing for Observers to be deployed in the States/UTs. CEC Rajiv Kumar & senior EC officials briefed over 2150 senior officers drawn from IAS, IPS, IRS & IAAS officers," the poll panel spokesperson said in a tweet.
