Complete List Of 64 Assembly Constituencies Where Bypolls Are Scheduled For October 21

Bypolls to 64 assembly seats across 18 states will be held on October 21 and the counting of votes will be on October 24, the Election Commission of India (ECI) has announced. While assembly by-elections will be held on 64 assembly seats, the Samastipur Lok Sabha constituency in Bihar will also have a bypoll. These assembly seats include 15 in Karnataka and 11 in Uttar Pradesh.

The 11 UP assembly seats mostly belong to MLAs who had won the Lok Sabha elections and had resigned as members of the state assembly. The Samastipur (Bihar) Lok Sabha by-election was necessitated following the death of sitting MP Ram Chandra Paswan of the Lok Janshakti Party in July.

Assembly bypolls in West Bengal are not being held now as the state government had cited the Durga Puja festivities to postpone the exercise. They will also not be held in Uttarakhand now as panchayat elections are already underway and the state machinery is occupied with the exercise, CEC Sunil Arora said.

In some other seats, by-elections are not being held as respective high courts are hearing election petitions and the matters are sub judice, he added. States where assembly bypolls will be held are Arunachal Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Telangana, Madhya Pradesh, Meghalaya, Odisha and Puducherry (one seat each).
