Changes in the dates of these states

The Election Commission has also changed the dates of assembly by-elections to be held in UP, Punjab and Kerala. Now voting for 14 assembly seats in these three states will be held on 20th November instead of 13th November, while the results will be declared on 23rd November only. The Commission has made this change on the demand of BJP, Congress, RLD, and BSP, because due to Kartik Purnima and Prakash Parv of Guru Nanak Devji on November 15, voting could be affected.
