Bengaluru, May 9 : Notification was issued for holding elections to 63 Urban Local Bodies in Karnataka and over 14 lakh eligible voters are expected to exercise their franchise on May 29.
Thus filing of Nominations began for 22 City Municipal Councils, 33 Municipalities and 22 Town Panchayats in 22 districts of the State.
As both the Coalition partners in the Government–Congress and JDS– have decided to go alone in the ULB election there will be a triangular fight.
Last date for withdrawal of Nomination is on May 20, while counting of votes polled will be taken up on May 31. The election code comes into force with immediate effect in all the ULBs where election are scheduled.
