West Bengal panchayat poll to be held on May 14, results on May 17

Kolkata, Apr 26 (IBNS): The West Bengal panchayat poll will be held in a single phase on May 14, media reports said.

The poll results will be declared on May 17.

Earlier the State Election Commission (SEC) had issued a three-phase poll on May 1, 3 and 5.

After the opposition parties moved Calcutta High Court over the pre-poll violence allegedly by the ruling Trinamool Congress (TMC), the dates were cancelled due to delay in the election procedures.

The state government and the Muslim community had appealed to the SEC to hold the election in a single phase, considering the beginning of Ramadan in mid-May.

Ramadan, the ninth month of Muslim calendar, is widely celebrated by Muslims by fasting.
