Will the EC conduct the Munugode by-election? As per norms, there is six months’ time. But there is apprehension that the BJP is in doubt that it might lose the election.
This might prompt them to take some more time to conduct the election here in Munugode. With the support of communists, the TRS is better placed in Munugode now.
While it is evident that Rajagopal Reddy will be contesting the by-elections, the Congress and the Telangana Rashtra Samithi are yet to announce their candidates.
The main reason for the main parties slowing down their aggression in Munugode is the reports from New Delhi that the by-election might not be held in the immediate future.
According to the reports reaching the Telangana Rashtra Samiti leadership, the BJP is not keen on having the by-election to Munugode immediately, as the party is not well-prepared to face it.
Going by the Election Commission of India rules, a by-election will be held within six months from the date of the seat falling vacant. As such, the by-poll to Munugode can be held by February 2022.
The Munugode election will not be conducted this year it is reported.
If the election is delayed, the BJP will get time to recoup its energy and work out strategies in a better way.
