Maharashtra MLC Election: Polling for Nagpur Bye-Election, 16 Biennial Seats on June 18, Result on June 22
The poll panel said the delayed elections were cleared after local body thresholds were met, with counting set for June 22.
- The Election Commission of India announced elections for 17 seats of the Maharashtra Legislative Council on Monday, with polling scheduled for June 18 and vote counting on June 22.
- These elections were previously delayed because constituencies failed to meet the requirement that at least 75 per cent of underlying local self-government bodies must be actively functioning; the Election Commission confirmed this threshold has now been crossed.
- Formal notification for the MLC elections will be issued on May 25; candidates have until June 1 to file nominations, with the final withdrawal deadline set for June 4.
- Revenue Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule's resignation from the Nagpur Local Authorities' seat prompted the by-election, where the winner will serve until the term ends on January 1, 2028.
- The Model Code of Conduct is now in effect across all affected constituencies, including Solapur, Pune, and Thane, with the election process concluding by June 25.
