The Election Commission of India on Wednesday changed the poll dates of Rajasthan Assembly Elections from November 23 to November 25. "The change in the date of the poll was made following representations from various political parties, and social organisations and also issues raised in various media platforms considering large-scale wedding/social engagement on that day which may cause inconvenience to a large number of people, various logistic issues and may lead to reduced voters participation during the poll," Election Commission said.


The EC said, "The Commission, having considered these factors and representations, has decided to change the date of the poll from November 23, 2023 (Thursday) to November 25, 2023 (Saturday)."


The counting of votes will take place on 3 December.


The Election Commission on Monday announced the schedule for Assembly polls in Mizoram, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Telangana. Earlier, the Election Commission said that the Assembly polls in Rajasthan will be held on November 23.
