ECI to announce Maharashtra, Jharkhand Election 2024 dates today

New Delhi, Oct 15: The Election Commission of India is all set to release the schedule for another set of assembly elections for Maharashtra and Jharkhand  today. 

The dates for elections in these key states will be released at about 3.30 pm today, the poll panel said in a statement. 

The term of Maharashtra Assembly will end on November 26. The state is currently ruled by the Mahayuti government led by chief minister Eknath Shinde. The Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP,) Shiv Sena-Eknath Shinde and NCP-Ajit Pawar are part of the ruling alliance in Maharashtra. Maharashtra has 288 seats.

Similarly, in Jharkhand, the term of the Assembly will end on January 5, 2025.   The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)- Congress alliance is in power in the state with Hemant Soren as the chief minister. Jharkhand has 81 seats.

The Maharashtra election is expected to witness a two-way fight between the ruling Mahayuti Alliance and the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) coalition, of the Shiv Sena (UBT), NCP - Sharad Pawar and the Congress. In 2019 the BJP, and undivided Sena, coalition had come to power in the state.

In Jharkhand, the ruling JMM-Congress alliance is up against the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), which comprises the BJP, the Janata Dal (United), and the All Jharkhand Students Union (AJSU). In 2019, Hemant Soren's JMM had won 30 seats while the Congress bagged 16 seats paving way for Soren to be sworn in as chief minister.

The next set of assembly polls in Maharashtra and Jharkhand are being held after the recently-concluded assembly polls in Haryana and Jammu and Kashmir.
