The Election Commission of India (ECI) on Monday announced that the Bihar Assembly elections will be held in two phases – on November 6 and November 11, with counting scheduled for November 14.
Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, while unveiling the schedule, said the Commission is committed to ensuring that this election is the most “transparent, secure, and easy” in India’s history.
Kumar urged all political parties to cooperate with the ECI to maintain transparency throughout the electoral process.
“We request all political parties to appoint polling booth agents at every booth, actively participate in the randomisation of EVMs and VVPATs, and remain vigilant at the strong room,” he said.
Bihar has 7.42 crore registered voters and 90,712 polling stations across the state.
The CEC also cautioned that any fake news or misinformation on social media during the election period will be dealt with strictly.
