Election Commission Revises Polling Date for Assembly By-Elections – Full List of States

The Election Commission of India stated on Monday that by-elections in 14 assembly constituencies will be held on November 20 instead of November 13.

Kerala, Punjab, and Uttar Pradesh are among the constituencies whose bypoll dates will be changed. The poll commission has set November 13 as the date for by elections in 48 assembly constituencies and two Lok Sabha seats.

“Representations have been received in the Commission from various recognised national and state political parties (including BJP, INC, BSP, RLD) and some social organisations for change of date for poll in some Assembly constituencies having by-elections on 13th November, 2024, considering large scale social, cultural and religious engagements on that day which may cause inconvenience to large number of people, give rise to various logistic issues and may lead to reduced voters participating during the poll,” the poll panel said.

The constituencies that will now vote on November 20 are as follows:-
