Dehra Dun, Aug 26:
Elections to the assemblies of Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Punjab and Manipur will be held before March 17, Chief Election Commissioner N Gopalaswamy said today.
This was disclosed by Gopalaswamy after a high level meeting here to review arrangements for assembly polls in Uttaranchal next year.
He also expressed unhappiness over the pace of the process of distributing photoidentity cards in the hill state and directed the officials to expedite the process."So far only 30 to 50 percent of voters have got photo-identity cards," Gopalaswamy told reporters.
He said the name of those youths who complete 18 years of age on January one next year, would be included in the voter list of the four states going for polls.
