Election Commission set to announce poll dates for West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Assam, Kerala, Puducherry The Election Commission is all set to announce the poll dates for four States - West Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Assam, and Kerala - as well as the Union Territory of Puducherry. The announcement is expected soon after a meeting with the Chief Secretary of West Bengal. This development comes in the wake of the EC's visit to West Bengal, where top officials met with senior government officials to discuss various aspects related to the polls. The meeting was part of the EC's efforts to ensure free and fair elections in the State, which has witnessed high-pitched political activity in recent times. The poll dates will be announced after the EC takes into account the feedback from its visit to West Bengal. This could include issues such as the deployment of polling personnel, voter registration, and the overall preparedness for the polls. Meanwhile, the EC has already initiated steps to ensure that the polls are conducted smoothly in all five entities. The commission is working closely with the respective State election authorities to identify potential trouble spots and take measures to address them. The EC's announcement will be keenly watched by political parties contesting the elections, particularly those in West Bengal where the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC) is facing a strong challenge from its main opponents, including the Left Front and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). In Tamil Nadu, the polls are seen as a direct test of the popularity ...#Congress #West_Bengal #Tamil_Nadu #Assam #Kerala #Election_Commission #Trinamool_Congress #DMK #Puducherry #Left_Front #Bharatiya_Janata_Party #All_India_Anna_Dravida_Munnetra_Kazhagam #Edappadi_K_Palaniswami
