The Election Commission of India has turned down a request to change the election date in West Bengal and Assam from Maundy Thursday. The All India Catholic Union (AICU), the largest laity movement in Asia, submitted a petition asking the commission to reconsider holding polls on April 1, the day before Good Friday, in the eastern and northeastern states. Chandra Bhushan Kumar, deputy election commissioner, rejected the petition on March 1.
