GVMC bypoll: BJP demands suspension of Returning Officer

‘A candidate was first declared as independent and then as YSRCP candidate’
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader and former MLA P. Vishnu Kumar Raju has demanded suspension of the Returning Officer for what he called “acting like an agent of the YSR Congress Party” with regard to the nominations for the GVMC’s 31st ward bypoll.
Addressing the media here on Wednesday, Mr. Raju appealed to the District Collector and State Election Commissioner (SEC) to suspend the RO concerned for misuse of power. The ‘violation of rules’ in the process pertaining to the bypoll was an indication of the ‘anti-democratic’ rule of the YSR Congress Party government, he alleged.
