Shimla: Voting for the 68-member Himachal Pradesh Assembly began at 8 am today and will continue till 5 pm. Meanwhile, a 105-year-old woman Naro Devi on Saturday (November 12) exerted her mothership at the Ladhan polling booth under the Churah assembly constituency in the Chamba district of the state and another 112-year-old woman cast her vote in Ladhan at the booth number 122 of Gram Panchayat Kohal.

Though the Election Commission of India (ECI) has provided a voluntary facility to voters above the age of 80 years to vote through ballot papers at their homes, the old woman preferred to cast her vote with an Electronic Voting Machine (EVM) at the polling station instead of opting for the facility.
