The draft list and boundary details of wards of all local bodies in Madurai district, which was released last week after the recently completed delimitation exercise, has already received overwhelming number of objections, predominantly from various political parties. Meanwhile, in Palamedu, a group of people staged a road roko in the morning to highlight their opposition to the delimitation of wards in town panchayat. Alleging that the State Election Commission had given extremely short time to political parties and the public to report any objections to the delimitation exercise, he urged the Collector to convene another meeting with political parties to discuss all the issues. Later, speaking to the media, he said that there were problems in the redrawn boundaries of wards in all the 13 panchayat unions, three municipalities, nine town panchayats, and at least 24 wards of Madurai Corporation. In Madurai Corporation, meetings with representatives of political parties happened in all its four zonal offices.
