New Delhi: The Election Commission has decided to postpone elections to three Assembly constituencies in Himachal Pradesh - Kinnaur, Bharmour and Lahaul and Spiti - to June 8 in view of inclement weather conditions in these areas.

A decision to defer elections to these constituencies has been taken after taking all material circumstances into account, including the representations received from various political parties and individuals and also the report of the chief electoral officer of the state, EC said in a press release.

According to poll schedule announced by EC, polls to these constituencies were to be held along with Assembly polls in HP, Meghayala, Nagaland and Tripura on February 26.
