"Even if she casts her vote in the morning, we have to remain open until 5pm in keeping with the election commission guidelines," Riba said.The Press Trust of India news agency reported that the tiny outpost had two voters in 2014, the other being Tayang's husband. But he had enrolled in another electorate this time around, leaving just Tayang on the registry, PTI said.
