Srinagar, India, Nov 28 (EFE), (Camera: Farooq Khan).- The first phase of the staggered Kashmir civic polls began on Saturday amid high security, more than a year after India revoked the semi-autonomous status of the disputed Himalayan region.More than 6.7 million people are eligible to vote and elect their representatives to 280 development councils across 20 districts of Kashmir.The elected councils will have no legislative powers but will be responsible for ensuring the economic development of the troubled region that has since long rebelled against the Indian rule.The elections, which have generated a cold response in the Kashmir Valley, will be held in eight phases that end on Dec. 19. Officials will count the votes on Dec. 22.FOOTAGE OF POLING STATIONS IN KASHMIR.
