Mysore/Mysuru: Amidst the heated debate on vaccines, women Corporators, cutting across party lines, came together to demand the Mayor’s post as per the reservation matrix announced by the State Government. They alleged that the Mayor’s post has been kept intentionally vacant to deny a chance for women.
The Mayor’s post is reserved for General Woman Corporator and the elections have been postponed giving an excuse of COVID. “Today we are meeting in the Council and there in the State hectic lobbying is on for Ministerial berths. It is unfortunate that COVID yardstick for Mayor’s election has been imposed to deny a woman the highest post in the city,” alleged Prema Shankaregowda.
