AP Gram Panchayat Elections District Wise Schedule 2026
Andhra Pradesh Gram Panchayat Elections 2026 will be conducted in three phases for Sarpanch and Ward Member posts. The announced polling dates are 26 November, 29 November and 2 December 2026. Voters are looking for the district-wise election schedule to identify the polling date for their district, Mandal and Gram Panchayat.
The Andhra Pradesh State Election Commission (APSEC) has announced the three-phase election programme.
