The election commission has set up 14,975 polling stations and has deployed 1.13 lakh election workers.

Some of the important constituencies in the second phase of polls include Ghatlodia (in Ahmedabad district) of CM Bhupendra Patel, Viramgam seat (also in Ahmedabad) from where Patidar leader Hardik Patel is fighting on the BJP’s ticket, Alpesh Thakor is fighting as the saffron party candidate.
