The Election Commission has addressed a letter to the State government seeking its opinion on the conduct of elections to fill six vacancies to the Legislative Council from MLAs’ constituency. The vacancies arose on June 3 due to the retirement of Council chairman Gutha Sukender Reddy, vice-chairman Neti Vidyasagar, B. Venkateswarlu, Kadiam Srihari, Mohammed Fareeduddin and Akula Lalitha. In the absence of both the chairman and the vice-chairman, the government had appointed Mr. V. Bhoopal Reddy as pro-tem chairman. The EC, which generally conducted the polls well before the vacancies, postponed them this time due to the second wave of COVID.More Related News
