Of the 33 members of the Puducherry legislative assembly, 30 are elected directly by voters while three are nominated by the central government. Elections for the 30-member Puducherry assembly were announced days after the Congress-led government in the Union Territory fell due to defections.


The Election Commission has prohibited the publishing of results of any exit polls between March 27, 7am and April 29, 7pm.
