J&K Phase II Elections: 267 Nominations Cleared, 62 Rejected
In the buildup to Phase II of the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly elections, the Election Commission has accepted 267 nominations while rejecting 62 due to technical and legal discrepancies. This phase has drawn significant attention as multiple political parties are locked in a fierce contest for crucial constituencies.
The rejected nominations came after a rigorous scrutiny process, which officials stated was carried out to ensure compliance with election guidelines. Several candidates whose nominations were dismissed are now considering appeals, though time is running out as the election date approaches.
Among the approved candidates are heavyweights from major political parties, as well as a significant number of independent candidates hoping to sway the voters. With such a large pool of contenders, the electoral battle for Phase II is expected to be intense.
The Election Commission is closely monitoring the process to ensure a fair and transparent election. Voter enthusiasm is already building, with observers predicting a strong turnout as the region looks forward to shaping its political future.
