EC decision on Gujarat polls by Friday

Chief Election Commissioner J M Lyngdoh and his deputies T S Krishnamurthy and B B Tandon, who toured riot-ravaged Ahmedabad and Baroda for three days, had informally discussed the issue after their return on Sunday, they said.

The final decision is likely to emerge by Friday, they said.

Lyngdoh, on his return, had told reporters that the situation in the state was 'muddy'.

The CEC and his two deputies had gone to Gujarat for an on-the-spot assessment of the situation before deciding on the timing of polls.
