All eyes are on bypolls which will be held on Wednesday in 31 assembly seats spread across 10 states and Kerala’s Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency, from where Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra is making her electoral debut. Interestingly, though these bypolls will not have any bearing on the governments, they are seen as a big test for the Congress and the INDIA bloc which failed to put up a united show in the recent Haryana assembly polls. Along with Wayanad, seven seats in Rajasthan, six in West Bengal, five in Assam, four seats in Bihar, three in Karnataka, two seats in Madhya Pradesh, and one seat each in Chhattisgarh, Gujarat, Kerala and Meghalaya will also witness the bypoll contest. Votes will be counted on November 23.Bypolls: Voting for 31 assembly seats underway; eyes on Priyanka Gandhi’s electoral debut in Wayanad
