The term of the Haryana Assembly is set to conclude in November, while the Supreme Court has mandated that elections in Jammu and Kashmir must be conducted by September 30, 2024. Jammu and Kashmir has been without an elected legislative body for the past five years.

In recent history, the Election Commission has conducted elections in Maharashtra and Haryana together for the last three election cycles, as their terms end within a month of each other. However, there is a precedent for the Election Commission decoupling state polls traditionally held together, and this could potentially happen again this time.
