The polling process in Ferozepur was almost peaceful except few incidents like the EVM problem at one polling booth in Mamdot, a viral polling video for Surinder Kamboj BSP candidate at Jiwan Arain booth number 53, who was booked on this account and face-to-face between AAP MLA Bhullar with Anumit Singh Sodhi, son of BJP candidate Rana Sodhi and of course when DC was not recognized at the polling centre at the same polling booth.  Visually impaired Vishnu was seen very excited on casting his vote saying of high expectations from whosoever forms the government for the blind community.
