However, he said every political programme and activity would be monitored to ensure they complied with the law and did not jeopardise public safety or order.
"Overall, the security and public order situation throughout the 16h Negri Sembilan State Election remains good and under control.
"In terms of enforcement, we have received only one police report and no investigation papers related to election offences have been opened," he said in a statement on Sunday (July 19).

He added that any violation of the law would be dealt with firmly, fairly and with integrity, with no compromise.
He advised the public to obey the law, respect the democratic process and give their full cooperation to police personnel on the field to ensure the state polls can be conducted in a peaceful, harmonious, safe and orderly manner.
