2025 Uttarakhand local elections

2025 Uttarakhand municipal general elections^[1]^[2] are expected to be held in January 2025 to elect members of 100 of the 102 regular municipalities^[a] in the state. There are 11 Municipal Corporations, 45 Municipal Councils and 49 Nagar Panchayats^[b] in the state of Uttarakhand. Elections are being conducted in all of the municipal corporations, 43 municipal councils and 46 nagar panchayats.

Background

The schedule of the tenure of urban local bodies in Uttarakhand excluding Roorkee, Bajpur, Badrinath, Kedarnath, Selakui and Gangotri was supposed to end on 2 December 2023. However, elections were delayed due to the delay in delimitation of the constituencies and the publication of rolls. The term of the above mentioned municipalities also ended on 22 November 2024. The election is now expected to be held in January 2025.^[3] The state election commission announced that elections will be held in all urban bodies barring Kichha and Narendra Nagar, which would be held later alongside the panchayat elections later this year.
