Delhi Lok Sabha Election 2024 Phase 6: As the second last phase of the Lok Sabha elections is around the corner, the Union Territory of Delhi, will go to polling in the sixth phase to elect the representative for its seven seats. During the phase 6 of the Lok Sabha Elections 2024, Delhi, along with seven other states and UTs will go to polling on May 25, Saturday.
Of the 889 candidates whose electoral fate will be decided in the sixth phase, 162 of them are in fray from Delhi.
Since Delhi has just seven seats, the general elections in Delhi are usually conducted in a single phase.
Just like the previous elections, this year too, the pattern remains consistent for the 2024 Lok Sabha Polls, as the Election Commission of India (ECI) has opted to conduct the 18th Lok Sabha elections in the Union Territory within a single phase on Saturday.
However, Delhi does hold the distinction of possessing the highest number of Lok Sabha seats among the other Union Territories.
