In a significant development regarding the local body elections in Maharashtra scheduled for 2025, the Nagpur bench of the Bombay High Court issued a ruling on Tuesday that has altered the timeline for the counting of votes. The court has decided that the counting for the votes cast in 264 municipal councils and nagar panchayats will now take place on December 21, moving it from the previously established date of December 3. This decision reflects the court’s authority in overseeing electoral processes and ensuring that they are conducted fairly and transparently, thereby impacting the electoral landscape in the region as stakeholders prepare for the upcoming elections.
The results of the Maharashtra local body elections, originally scheduled for 2025, have been postponed.
