Elections on Oct 30 and results on Nov 2
The much-awaited bypoll for the Huzurabad Assembly constituency will be held on October 30 and the results would be announced on November 2. The Election Commission of India issued the notification on Tuesday for bypolls to several Assembly and Parliament constituencies across the country including Huzurabad.
The bypoll was necessitated with the resignation of former Health Minister, Eatala Rajender from the Assembly after he was dismissed by Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao from his Cabinet on charges of ‘land grabbing'. He later joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and is likely to be its candidate.
The ruling TRS has announced the name of its student’s wing president Gellu Srinivas Yadav as its candidate while the Congress is yet to finalise its nominee. The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and the Left parties are also likely to field their candidates.
