| Local Bodies Set To Reappear | | | | The Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir is likely to go to the polls for Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) and Panchayat elections in 2026.
The tenure of Municipal bodies in Jammu and Kashmir ended in November 2023, while that of Panchayats concluded in January 2024. The elections were deferred due to security considerations and the pending implementation of Other Backward Classes (OBC) reservation in Municipal bodies and Panchayati Raj institutions.
The process was further delayed after the State Election Commissioner’s (SEC) post fell vacant in April 2025. The government has initiated the process to fill in the vacant post of the SEC and the meeting is slated to be pick up the new SEC.
