The election body said that the decision to push the dates of the poll was based on requests made by several political parties and social organisations who said that a large number of weddings and other social events would take place on 23 November. “The issue was raised in various social media platforms for change of date of poll considering large scale wedding/social engagement on that day that may cause inconvenience to large number of people,” the EC said. Meanwhile, the date of election results will remain unchanged, ie, 3 December. Madhya Pradesh will head to polls on 17 November, Mizoram on 7 November, Telangana 30 November, and two-phase polls will be held in Chhattisgarh on 7 and 17 November, Election Commission of India (ECI) announced on Monday. Addressing a press conference on Monday, Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar said,” Total voters in Mizoram are 8.52 lakh, 2.03 crore in Chhattisgarh, 5.6 crore in Madhya Pradesh, 5.25 crore in Rajasthan and 3.17 crore in Telangana.” Polling will be held on 679 seats across the five states. Polls will have 8.2 crore male and 7.8 crore female voters and around 60 lakh first-time voters (18-19 Yrs). “15.39 lakh young voters are eligible to participate in elections due to amendment on qualifying dates. To inspire young voters, over 2,900 polling stations will be managed by youth,” said Kumar.
