Bihar polls from mid-October

The Bihar assembly polls could be a month-long exercise spread over four to seven phases from mid-October, sources in the Election Commission said.
The poll dates would be announced by mid-September as the Election Commission has started working on the schedule after its team visited the state last week, the sources said. The entire process is likely to conclude by November 20, nine days before a new assembly is notified.
The Election Commission has ruled out the possibility of holding election in September-October because late monsoon rains could impede the exercise. more
