Local body polls: YSRCP urges SEC to call all-party meeting before notification

The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) has submitted a representation to the Andhra Pradesh State Election Commission (SEC), demanding that an urgent all-party meeting be convened to address its electoral concerns and clarify procedures ahead of the local body elections.

A copy of the representation has also been forwarded to the Election Commission of India (ECI).

In a letter dated October 7, YSRCP State general secretary and MLC Lella Appi Reddy said an inclusive consultation with all political parties was necessary to ensure free and fair elections and to protect equal opportunity for candidates and voters.

The YSRCP urged the SEC to convene the meeting at the earliest, preferably before issuing the formal election notification, and to invite senior officials to establish uniform guidelines across the State.
