Despite an initial surge, the voter turnout in the Assembly polls on Monday May 16,2016 reached only around 75 percent, almost equal to that in the previous Assembly polls (75. 12 %). 

The tentative  turnout published by the Election Commission  on Monday night was 74.12 %.

The final figures may go up by two to four %, registering only a marginal increase compared to   2011.  

The  turnout during the 2006 Assembly poll was 72.27 %
