, ? HC For Panchayat Polls In AP
Clearing the decks for the conduct of election to local bodies in the state as per schedule, a division bench of the Andhra Pradesh High Court on Thursday set aside the order of the single Judge suspending the notification issued by the State Election Commission (SEC) to conduct elections in four phases starting February 5.
The Andhra Pradesh state government is likely to challenge the court verdict in the Supreme Court.
On January 11, the High Court had suspended the notification issued by the SEC on January 8 to hold elections in the State in four phases in February following a petition moved by the government. The SEC appealed the verdict before a Division Bench which after hearing the arguments of the two sides issued
orders on Thursday.
While the State argued that it is not conducive to hold the elections in the wake of the covid-19 pandemic and the administration being busy in the ongoing Covid-19 vaccination drive, the SEC pointed out that the coronavirus is under control in the State and is not so alarming.
