As the Supreme Court has set September 15 as the deadline for conducting local body elections in nine districts, including Tirunelveli and Tenkasi, the first-level checking of the electronic voting machines (EVMs) and the control units in the presence of political parties’ representatives is under way here since Thursday. Local body polls were not conducted in nine districts, as delimitation exercise could not be completed properly after new districts were carved out from existing ones two years ago, the State Government has planned to conduct the rural civic polls before September 15, as mandated by the Supreme Court.More Related News
