The BJP's strategy discussions before of elections in five states may be hampered by the sudden increase in COVID cases at its headquarters. The Election Commission of India (ECI) set the dates for Assembly elections in five states last week. Between February 10 and March 7, elections will be place in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Manipur, Goa, and Punjab. On March 10th, the results will be announced.
