There is speculation in political circles that the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections might be held earlier than scheduled. Instead of March 2027, elections could take place between December 2026 and January 2027 due to the second phase of the census scheduled for February 2027. Major political parties like the Samajwadi Party and Congress have expressed readiness for an early poll. Other states like Punjab, Uttarakhand, Goa, and Manipur are also slated for elections around the same time. https://sambad.in/india-and-beyond/up-assembly-election-2027-early-poll-speculation-11863643 #creator program
