Kakinada Municipal Corporation KMC election 2017
- Caste plays an important role in any elections and Kakinada Municipal Corporation election is no different. In fact, caste equations will be the deciding factor in the KMC elections, that are being held after a long gap. Out of the total population of 3.25 lakh people, BCs form a large chunk with fishermen community (16 castes and sub-castes) followed by forward castes, which is dominated by Kapu community.
- Hyderabad High Court on Thursday refused to postpone or cancel the election to the Kakinada Municipal Corporation.
- Elections to the Kakinada Municipal Corporation will be held for only 48 divisions instead of the 50. The State Election Commission has suspended elections for two divisions, Nos. 42 and 48, located in the three merged villages -Swamy Nagar, Teachers Colony and S. Achutapuram - and issued election schedule for 48 divisions.
- While admitting petitions filed challenging the GO issued by the AP government notifying 48 wards in the Kakinada Municipal Corporation and the consequent notification issued by the State Election Commission to conduct election to the civic body, Justice P Naveen Rao said the poll would not be stayed.
- Petitioners Medisetty Eswara Rao, Tadi Bhavani Prasad and T William Harry, residents of Kakinada in East Godavari district, filed petitions separately challenging the election.
- The counsels for Eswara Rao and Prasad submitted that the law mandates that a minimum of 50 wards participate in municipal corporation polls and to escape from contempt proceedings, authorities had fixed boundaries in a hurried manner in violation of the law. After hearing both sides, the judge dismissed the miscellaneous petitions saying that the court could not intervene once notification was issued. The judge held that the election process shall go on as per schedule.
