It would be a full Commission which would be visiting the State which would include two Election Commissioners Sunil Arora and Ashok Lavassa.
This would be the second visit of the Commission members to the State. Earlier, they had visited the State before the announcement of dates of the elections.

The ECI team was requested by State officials during the meeting for additional requirement of deployment of forces for the first phase of elections in Naxal infested seven districts in the state.
This time too, they would review the preparations in the state for polls by taking meetings of administrative and police officials of the state.
The Commission would also subsequently be visiting other two poll bound states of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh along with Chhattisgarh.
