Bugle sounded for LS bypoll in Warangal

The EC has not announced the by-poll date
Hyderabad: The Election Commission on Wednesday announced the Warangal (SC reserved) Lok Sabha bypoll for November 21.
The EC, however, has not announced the by-poll date for the vacant Narayankhed Assem-bly and sources said that it would be differed to the next phase along with the other vacant seats in various states.
“All bypolls announced today are due to be held before December 11, for other seats the deadline —within six months from the date of vacancy — is beyond Dece-mber 11; the EC thinks it can hold them separately,” said sources.
The Warangal LS bypoll caused due to the resignation of Mr Kadiam Srihari who became MLC and deputy chief minister. Sources said the TRS is planning to field either District Advocate JAC convenor Mr Gudimella Ravikumar, Mr Pasunuri Dayakar or Mr Paramjyothi, all three from the Madiga sub-caste which makes up 70 per cent of the SC population in the Warangal LS seat.
