Some people, however, did not understand the hype for Arora specifically with a few users online commenting on how she is not the only polling officer who is diligent and that there are 100s of other officers who are also completing their duties with dedication. Some also insinuated that Arora only went viral because she is a good-looking woman.
However, most people have only good words, applauding an officer doing their job.
