Voting through ballots will take place between 7 am and 3 pm.
The three-tier Madhya Pradesh panchayat polls will be held in three phases - June 25, July 1 and July 8 - and the counting of votes will take place on July 8, 11, 14 and 15, announced State Election Commissioner BP Singh on Friday.
The polls will be held for 22,921 village panchayats [22921 posts of sarpanch and 3,63,726 panchayat members], 6771 members of 313 janpad panchayats and 875 posts of district panchayat members in the 52 districts.
Voting through ballots will take place between 7 am and 3 pm.
"It has been seen that local body polls, particularly in the villages not only lead to competition between candidates, but the contest even turns into conflicts and after the polls are over, such conflicts sometimes turn into violent feuds. In the last panchayat polls, many villages had unanimously decided to elect their sarpanch and panch unopposed.
