Thirty-three poll workers, including home guards and sanitation staff, tragically died due to heatstroke during the seventh phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh. Navdeep Rinwa, the state's Chief Electoral Officer, confirmed the peaceful and smooth completion of voting. Despite the overall success of the election, this incident cast a shadow over the proceedings. The Election Commission has ordered compensation for the families of the deceased workers.
