The dates for national elections - in which the government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government is seeking a second term in power -- will be announced by the Election Commission at 5 pm today, sources said. Assembly polls will be held in four states -- Andhra Pradesh, Sikkim, Arunachal Pradesh and Odisha -- simultaneously with the Lok Sabha elections. The Election Commission's move comes amid accusations of deliberate delay by the opposition Congress. The party said the commission is giving more time to the government for last -minute announcement of welfare schemes and projects that cannot be done once the model code of conduct kicks in with the announcement of elections. Commission sources have rubbished the claims.
