Uttarakhand Assembly election 2027

Uttarakhand votes in 2027, and the campaign has already begun. On 10 November 2026, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami said in Rishikesh that the BJP will win a full majority for a third consecutive term, while the Uttarakhand Congress started a signature campaign against his government, with signed forms due in Dehradun by 20 November. On 11 November, speaking in Bhopal, Dhami said he would respond to Sonia Gandhi's memoir only after reading it, and accused the Congress of vote-bank politics. The Election Commission's special summary revision of electoral rolls put the draft voter list out on 12 November, with claims and objections open until 11 December, hearings until 28 December and the final roll due on 4 January 2027. On 12 November, reports said the Centre doubled disaster death compensation for Uttarakhand to Rs 8 lakh. Also on 12 November, at the inauguration of Kamdhenu Lok in Haridwar, Dhami said the opposition calls Gau Seva a symbol of a regressive mindset and alleged that opponents deployed high-profile lawyers against the Ram Mandir in the Supreme Court. Minister Rekha Arya has called Congress leader Harish Rawat "Kursi Kumar" after his "Babli" post, and Rawat has written that he is not aspiring to be Chief Minister if the Congress wins a majority in 2027. No polling date has been reported. The next fixed dates are 20 November for the Congress signature drive and 11 December for voter-roll claims.
