Bengaluru: With the announcement of the poll schedule for three City Corporations — Mysuru, Shivamogga and Tumakuru, the counting of votes of all urban local bodies including the three City Corporations will be taken up on Sept.3. While 105 urban local bodies including 29 CMCs, 53 TMCs and 23 Town Panchayats go to the polls on Aug. 29, the voting for the three City Corporations will take place on Aug. 31.
The Election Commission had fixed Sept.1 as the counting date for the 105 Urban Local Bodies going to the polls on Aug. 29 but the EC’s announcement of poll schedule for the three Corporations following the High Court dismissing petitions on voters list and reservation of seats, has forced it to reschedule the counting date to Sept.3, so that the counting of all the 105 Urban Local Bodies and the three City Corporations will be taken up on the same date.
