The third phase of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections witnessed a notable voter turnout across 93 parliamentary constituencies.

As per the Election Commission, the turnout stood at 61.45 percent by 8 pm. This phase marked the conclusion of polling in 20 States/Union Territories, covering 283 parliamentary constituencies. A total of 1331 candidates vied for seats in this phase.

In a statement released by the Election Commission, it was highlighted that polling proceeded smoothly and peacefully across all States/UTs during the three phases. The regions encompassed the entire northeastern part of the nation, including areas affected by Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) and vulnerable areas in Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, and Madhya Pradesh.

The Commission, headed by Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar, alongside Election Commissioners Gyanesh Kumar and Sukhbir Singh Sandhu, closely monitored every aspect of the poll process. Rigorous security measures were implemented to ensure a conducive environment for voters, allowing them to cast their votes without fear or intimidation.

The Commission also highlighted the presence of 75 international delegates from 23 countries who visited numerous polling stations across six states to witness the electoral process firsthand.

These delegates observed the dispatching of polling materials and machines to polling teams and commended the scale, transparency, and the festive atmosphere among voters.

Special arrangements were made to counter the effects of hot weather conditions, including the provision of amenities such as shade, drinking water, medical kits, and fans at polling stations to enhance voter convenience.

The Commission also made concerted efforts to facilitate voting among tribal groups, with polling stations adorned with tribal culture and local themes. Noting, in Chhattisgarh, five generations of a family cast their votes together at a polling station in Sarguja.

The states and Union Territories where polling occurred in this phase included Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Assam, West Bengal, Bihar, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, Daman and Diu, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Goa, and Chhattisgarh.

However, voting in the Anantnag-Rajouri parliamentary constituency in Jammu and Kashmir was rescheduled to Phase-6. In addition, the Surat parliamentary constituency in Gujarat did not undergo polls as the candidate was elected unopposed.

Looking ahead, the fourth phase of polling is scheduled for May 13, covering 96 parliamentary constituencies spread across ten states and Union Territories. With each phase, Bharat’s democratic spirit continues to shine, showcasing the country’s commitment to free and fair elections.
