A total of 93 constituencies across 11 states and Union Territories will be covered in this phase.
Most of the schools in various states have declared holidays due to changes in the weather conditions. The states including Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Punjab, Haryana, West Bengal, and Delhi/NCR have already issued heatwave alerts.
