Jaipur: Rajasthan's much-anticipated urban local body (ULB) elections under the 'One State, One Election' (OSOE) plan, initially expected around Oct–Nov, are now likely to be held in Dec.
This was confirmed by urban development and housing (UDH) minister Jhabar Singh Kharra Tuesday.
Speaking to TOI, Kharra said the ongoing delimitation of municipal wards would conclude by the end of July. The state govt will then write to the State Election Commission in the first week of Aug to start updating the electoral rolls. "The commission is expected to finalise the voters' list by Oct, and elections will be held either in a single phase or multiple phases, depending on logistical convenience," Kharra said.
