Election Commission To Declare Lok Sabha Elections Schedule

Source: India Today

On Friday, March 15, the Election Commission announced that it would declare the schedule for the Lok Sabha elections and some state assemblies on March 16, 2024.

The poll body will announce the schedule for the Lok Sabha elections during a press conference at 3 p.m. in Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi. It will live stream the conference on its social media platforms.

The release of the Model Code of Conduct will take effect immediately.

The poll panel announced the poll schedule on the same day that Gyanesh Kumar and Sukhbir Singh Sandhu, the two recently appointed election commissioners, joined it.

Two positions became available for election commissioners at the Election Commission of India after Anup Chandra Pandey retired on February 14 and Arun Goel abruptly resigned last week. This announcement will also frame the political contest between the Congress-led INDIA alliance and the PM Narendra Modi-led NDA government.
