Collector K. Senthil Raj chaired a meeting here on Thursday with the 22 Returning Officers and 51 Assistant Returning Officers to review the preparations being put in place for the smooth conduct of the urban civic polls to be held on February 19.
In Thoothukudi district, 414 councillors including 60 councillors from Thoothukudi Corporation, 81 councillors from Kovilpatti, Kaayalpattinam and Tiruchendur municipalities and 273 councillors from 18 town panchayats are to be elected. As filing of nominations starts on January 28, Dr. Senthil Raj held a meeting with the Returning Officers and the Assistant Returning Officers.
He said the wall graffiti of the political parties should be removed even as 45 flying squads – four in Thoothukudi Corporation, four in municipalities and 18 in town panchayats – would be on the move to check poll code violations.
