Jammu and Kashmir will hold its first Assembly elections since the revocation of Article 370, beginning September 18, 2024. The elections will occur in three phases: September 18, September 25, and October 1, with results announced on October 4. This marks the region's first assembly elections in over a decade and its first since the end of its special status. Voter turnout in previous Lok Sabha elections indicates a strong desire for democratic participation. The Assembly will have 114 seats, including new representation for Kashmiri migrants and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir refugees.
