While announcing the calendar, the EC said that the former state of Jammu-et-Cachemire had been branched off in the territories of the Union of Jammu-et-Cachemire (with legislature) and Ladakh (without legislature).
In accordance with the law on the reorganization of Jammu-et-Cachemire, four members in office of Rajya Sabha representing the existing state of Jammu-et-Cachemire will be deemed to have been elected to fill the seats allocated to the territory of the Union of Jammu-et-Cachemire.
The four seats have been vacant since the end of the end of the in-office due to the non-duplication of the electorate required to lead the elections at the time of the occurrence of the vacancies.
After the constitution of the legislative assembly of the state of the UT of Jammu-et-Cachemire, there is a compulsory electorate to lead the biennial elections, he noted.
The voting count will take place in the evening of October 24, an hour after the end of the survey.
