JAKARTA - Deputy Minister of Home Affairs (Wamendagri) Bima Arya Sugiarto admitted that he had not received any worrying reports regarding the implementation of the 2024 Pilkada re-voting (PSU).

"There have been no worrying reports. So far it is still smooth," Bima told ANTARA in Jakarta, Sunday.

He explained that a number of regions in Indonesia implementing the PSU did not show any worrying signs, both in terms of implementation and security.

The government, in this case the Ministry of Home Affairs (Kemendagri), continued, only facilitates all needs related to the agenda.

Bima further explained that full supervision is in the Election Supervisory Body (Bawaslu), so that the government's position is only to support everything needed.

"Yes, there is also a mechanism and Bawaslu supervises it, so if the Ministry of Home Affairs only facilitates security, there is linmas, then in the region it also monitors, but of course the supervisory function is in Bawaslu," said the Mayor of Bogor for the 2014-2019 and 2019-2024 periods in front of dozens of student representatives from a number of campuses in Jakarta.

The General Elections Commission (KPU) revealed that as many as 496 polling stations (TPS) re-voted (PSU) for the 2024 Pilkada.

This amount, divided into 149 polling stations, will re-vote (PSU), 242 polling stations (PSS), and 102 polling stations to conduct further voting (PSL).

RI KPU member Iffa Rosita said that the re-voting (PSU) would be held no later than Friday, December 6, 2024.
