The last panchayat under Dumri block is Akbakitand. Two polling booths 25 and 26 were made in the upgraded Middle School, Banpura for four-five villages including Akbakitand. It was not easy to reach the center due to the area being Naxalite affected and inaccessible. Because of this, the polling personnel and security personnel had to walk about one and a half km to reach the polling booth. On Monday night, polling personnel and security personnel had camped in the middle school located in Bahadurpur village, one and a half km before the polling booth. On Tuesday morning at around 4 am, the polling party left Bahadurpur village on foot for the upgraded middle school, Banpura, the polling station.
