Polling in Uttar Pradesh, which sends 80 members to the Lower House of Parliament, has been spread across all the seven phases.
UP Chief Electoral Officer Navdeep Rinwa announced on Friday that a by-election for the Duddhi (ST) assembly constituency in Sonbhadra will also be held simultaneously. This seat became vacant following the disqualification of BJP MLA Ram Dular, who was convicted in a rape case. Six candidates are contesting for this seat.
Rinwa said there 2,50,56,877 registered electors in the 13 Lok Sabha constituencies will vote. They include 1,33,10,897 men, 1,17,44,922 women, and 1,058 transgenders. Polling parties were dispatched to their respective centres on Friday.
