VIJAYAWADA: The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Monday issued a stay order on the conduct of elections to Eluru Municipal Corporation. A single-judge bench headed by Justice DVSS Somayajulu heard a batch of petitions seeking an interim order to stay the March 10 polls to the Eluru municipal corporation. They reasoned that the authorities failed to rectify the anomalies in the preparation of electoral rolls and provision of reservation. The court in its earlier order issued on March 5 2020 directed the district election and municipal corporation authorities to rectify the anomalies in the electoral rolls. When the petitioners' counsel Nimmagadda Venkateswarlu informed the court its earlier order was not complied with the court issued an interim order to stay the Eluru municipal corporation elections.
