The Election Commission has cited security as a reason for its inability to conduct assembly polls with Lok Sabha elections in Jammu and Kashmir. The poll panel has literally repeated what it had said in 2019 when general elections were announced. Last assembly elections in J&K were held in 2014. For nearly six years now, the region is without an elected government. While announcing the poll schedule for general elections and assembly polls in four states – Andhra, Odisha, Arunachal and Sikkim – Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar said assembly elections in J&K are due but cited security reasons for not holding them with parliament elections.
