Chitrakoot votes: No bandit footprint for 1st time in Bundelkhand's bandlands

With the elimination of notorious bandit Udaybhan Yadav alias Gauri Yadav by UP special task force police last year, this will be the first polls in the hilly terrains of Chitrakoot, when large swathes of Bundelkhand will vote without the shadow of brigands or their diktats. Residents of the district comprising two assembly seats - Chitrakoot Sadar and Manikpur - will seal the fate of poll aspirants on Sunday.
