Once again, the atmosphere of local self-government elections in the state has started to heat up. Although the election schedule for 12 district councils and 125 panchayat committees has been announced, within just a few hours, a demand to postpone these elections has emerged.

OBC Bahujan Aghadi President Prakash Anna Shendge has sent a memorandum to the Election Commission regarding this. Voting is scheduled for February 5, and on the same day, the large annual fair of Chinchani Mayakka Devi of the Dhangar and Bahujan community takes place. Millions of devotees from across the state participate in this fair held on the Maharashtra and Karnataka border with their families.

According to Shendge, due to this religious fair, many voters will be out of town. Therefore, a large number of people will not be able to vote on the polling day, and there is a possibility of a lower voter turnout. He has also clarified that this is not appropriate for the democratic process. In this context, everyone is now watching what decision the Election Commission will make on this demand.
