The elections will be held in two phases in 81-strong assembly in Jharkhand this time around as against five in 2019. The two phases of voting will be held on November 13 and 20, while the results will be announced on November 23.
The Congress is playing second fiddle to the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) led by Chief Minister Hemant Soren as they try to retain power, while the BJP looks to make a comeback.
As the state votes to elect its representatives for the next five years, here is how you can find your name in the voter list ahead of the two phases of polling.
EPIC number method
If you have your Voter ID, you can use the EPIC (Electoral Photo ID Card) number on the card. The EPIC number is an alphanumerical code on the front of the card and is printed in bold characters.
With this, all you need to do is visit the electoral search page and select the "Search by EPIC" option. Enter the EPIC number, your state, and the captcha at the bottom.
If your name is on the electoral roll, the details of your district and Assembly constituency will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.
General information method
If you do not have your Voter ID or EPIC number, you can use the general information you have to locate your name on the electoral rolls.
Go to the Electoral search page and select the "Search by Details" method. Put your name, age, state, district, and enter the captcha.
If your name is on the electoral rolls, the details will be displayed at the bottom of the screen.
Assembly Elections 2024 | The Maharashtra Assembly polls will take place against the backdrop of a fractured political landscape in the western state where the Shiv Sena and NCP will be going up against the Uddhav Thackeray and Sharad Pawar factions, even as the BJP and Congress try to make their mark. Meanwhile, in Jharkhand, the JMM faces a new challenge after Hemant Soren's recent arrest and Champai, a longstanding party member, joining the BJP. The Haryana election resulted in a shock loss for Congress, which was looking to galvanize on the Lok Sabha poll performance, while J&K also saw the grand old party eventually stepping away from the cabinet, with Omar Abdullah's JKNC forming government. It remains to be seen if the upcoming polls help BJP cement its position further or provide a fillip to I.N.D.I.A.
