The 2024 Maharashtra Assembly Elections are scheduled for November 20 when all 288 of the state's constituencies will cast ballots in a single phase. To maximise the voter turnout, the state government has announced a holiday.
The opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), which is an alliance of the Congress, the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray), and the Sharad Pawar-led NCP faction, is facing off against the ruling Mahayuti, which includes the BJP, the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena, and the Ajit Pawar-led Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) faction, in the Maharashtra Assembly elections.
To cast their votes, voters must provide voter IDs or other legitimate ID proof to the polling booth. The polling will take place from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m in the state. You may find the polling booth and all the information you need online even before you arrive for voting.
