Rajasthan Election Result 2023 Date: Check out date, time of counting of votes, results announcement of 200 Assembly seats

Rajasthan Assembly election results 2023: Voting for as many as 200 constituencies—or Assembly seats—are scheduled to take in Rajasthan on Saturday, November 25, 2023. The 33 districts of the state have been divided into 200 seats. The ruling Congress party is eyeing a second straight term in Rajasthan, which has had a tradition of changing parties in governance for the last three decades.

Nearly 1,900 candidates are in the race to contest the seats in the Rajasthan elections, including Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot.

Out of the 200 seats in the Rajasthan Assembly, 199 will be contested on November 25, as the Election Commission adjourned elections in the Karanpur constituency following the death of Congress candidate Gurmeet Singh Koonar.

A straight battle between Congress and the BJP will also partially determine which of the two parties stands a better chance of taking charge at the Centre in the 2024 general elections.
