The Election Commission will most likely hold elections in West Bengal in six to seven phases, as per reports. The final call will be taken after February 15.
The poll panel is reportedly also mulling over holding single-phased elections in Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Puducherry, while Assam may see elections in 2-3 phases.
Beginning Wednesday, the top brass of the Election Commission will be visiting Tamil Nadu, Puducherry and Kerala to take stock of election preparedness. The commission has already visited Assam and West Bengal.
