Election Commission Removes 17 Unrecognised Political Parties in Uttarakhand
The Election Commission of Uttarakhand has removed 17 unrecognised political parties from its list of registered parties after a physical verification process. These parties had not contested any Lok Sabha or assembly elections since 2019 and had untraceable office addresses. This follows a previous removal of six other parties for similar reasons. The affected parties are primarily from districts including Haridwar, Dehradun, Nainital, Haldwani, and Pauri Garhwal.
