Congress leader Bajwa requests Election Commission to delay November 13 Punjab bypolls due to Gurpurab celebrations.

Partap Singh Bajwa, a senior Congress leader in Punjab, has asked the Election Commission to delay the November 13 assembly bypolls due to the Gurpurab celebrations for Guru Nanak Dev, which begin that day and culminate on November 15. He argues that the three-day festivities will significantly impact voter turnout, urging the Commission to recognize the cultural importance of the event and allow citizens to engage in both religious observances and the electoral process.
