He directed the concerned officials to ensure the installation of mobile toilets outside the counting centers as well as providing facilities for clean drinking water. Wherever there are open holes of sewerage lines around the counting centres, covers should be installed. He also directed that in view of the summer season, water should be sprinkled around the polling stations on the day of counting so that dust etc. does not fly.
