The Election Commission of India is expected to make important announcements regarding the upcoming Assam Assembly elections during a press conference scheduled for 4 PM on March 15.
The briefing will be held at the Commission’s headquarters in New Delhi, where senior officials are likely to share key details about the election process in Assam, including the possible schedule for polling.
Sources indicate that there is a strong possibility that the dates for the Assembly elections in Assam could be formally announced during the press conference. The announcement is being closely watched as political parties across the state have already stepped up their preparations for the upcoming electoral contest.
There are also indications that polling in the state may be conducted before the start of the Bihu festivities. The state government had earlier expressed a preference for holding the elections ahead of the festival season to avoid potential logistical challenges.
As part of the election preparations, officials of the Election Commission recently conducted an all-party meeting in Guwahati to discuss arrangements and gather suggestions from political parties.
Representatives from various political parties in Assam attended the meeting, where matters related to polling logistics, security measures and the smooth conduct of the elections were discussed.
With the Election Commission set to address the media later in the day, the announcement is expected to provide clarity on the polling schedule and other key aspects of the upcoming Assam Assembly elections.
