144 Wards

Voting for the much-anticipated Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC) was begun for all 144 wards on December 19, amid tight security with all Covid-19 protocols. The polling is being held at 1,776 polling stations across the city and the counting of the votes will start from December 21. The KMC elections were supposed to be happening in 2020 but were delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
