General election 2019

Srinagar Lok Sabha seat had 11,06,729 total electorate count in 2009, and that count typically goes up by 35-40% over 10 years in India.[3] Due to the security situation in the valley, there was only 13% voter turn-out in Srinagar seat in May 2019. On the other hand, Udhampur enjoyed voter turn-out of 66% because of the better law and order situation in Jammu area.[4] In 70 polling booths of Srinagar Lok Sabha seat, not a single vote was cast due to the fear of violence.[5]
