ECI notification diminishes chances of Assembly polls | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 28: Notification issued by the Election Commission of India (ECI) diminished the chances of the maiden assembly elections in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
The ECI has ordered a special summary revision of photo electoral rolls in all the Parliamentary and Assembly constituencies in J&K with January 2024 as the qualifying date.
In this regard, a notice has been issued by the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO), J&K, P K Pole.
The notice issued by the CEO of J&K is a clear indication that the chances of maiden assembly elections in the Union Territory are bleak as the summary revision is a time-consuming exercise.
The last assembly elections in the erstwhile state of J&K were held in November-December 2014 in which BJP emerged as a strong force by winning 25 seats in the 87-member House.
After the BJP dumped the PDP on June 19, 2018, the erstwhile state plunged into political instability. On November 21, 2018, the then Governor Satya Pal Malik had dissolved the assembly, and central rule was imposed in J&K.
