May 25th was the 6th phase of India’s General Election, 2024. In this phase, 58 seats are in the running in 8 states and Union Territories, including the capital, Delhi. There are more than 900 million eligible voters in this national election, and millions of poll workers are working across the country to run the world’s largest democratic election.
