India’s 2024 Lok Sabha election turnout across 36 states and territories

The highest percentage came from the smallest electorate

Lakshadweep recorded 85.0% turnout among 57,953 electors in its single constituency. Uttar Pradesh recorded 57.0% but accounted for almost 88 million voters across 80 constituencies. The voter count measures the scale of participation, while turnout measures participation relative to the eligible electorate. Source 1

Bihar and Uttar Pradesh were the two lowest by turnout rate

Bihar recorded 56.3%, Uttar Pradesh 57.0% and Mizoram 57.1% at the published precision. On the other end, Sikkim recorded 83.3% and Assam 81.9%. Andhra Pradesh and Tripura tied on 81.8% in the published table, so the chart shows both. Source 1

The Surat seat is counted without a poll

Surat in Gujarat returned a candidate unopposed. The Election Commission includes the constituency in the 543-seat total and excludes it from the national turnout calculation. That treatment explains why the published national and Gujarat turnout percentages differ from dividing the displayed voter counts by the full elector counts. Source 1 Source 2

A state rate can conceal constituency extremes

The atlas identifies Dhubri in Assam as the highest-turnout constituency at 92.30% and Srinagar in Jammu and Kashmir as the lowest at 38.68%. Their larger jurisdictions recorded 81.9% and 58.7% respectively. Use the state table to compare across jurisdictions and the constituency figures when examining an individual seat.
