Suspense continues on Jammu and Kashmir elections
The suspense over the Jammu and Kashmir state assembly election dates continues as all that came out after two rounds of meetings of the full bench of the Election Commission on Monday was the schedule for elections for 12 Rajya Sabha seats, falling vacant or already vacant, with polling fixed on November 21.
“Wait for another day” was all that the Election Commission officials were able to say when asked about the dates for the assembly elections in half a dozen states, including Jammu and Kashmir, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.
After returning from Srinagar last week, the full bench held a meeting on Friday and Chief Election Commissioner N Gopalaswami again called his two Election Commissioner colleagues to his residence Saturday evening to thrash out differences over the J&K elections and wanted the office opened on Sunday, but without any announcement.
