The Election Commission of India will hold a press conference today (Monday) at 4 PM to announce the schedule for the Bihar Assembly elections along with the Jubilee Hills by-election 2025. The media briefing will take place at Vigyan Bhavan in New Delhi. Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, along with Election Commissioners Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Vivek Joshi, recently conducted an extensive two-day review in Bihar, engaging with senior state officials and representatives of political parties on election preparedness, security arrangements, and voter list revisions.
With the current term of the Bihar Assembly ending on November 22, the election process must be concluded before that date. Several political parties have requested that polling be conducted only after the Chhath Puja festival, and the Election Commission is expected to announce its decision on this matter during today’s press conference.
