BBMP reserved wards list out

Out of the 198 wards, 88 have been reserved for SC/ST, BC-A and BC-B

After much delay, the State released the list of the reserved wards on Monday, the day when the deadline set by the High Court came to an end.

The Government notified the reservation of the BBMP wards in the government gazette. As per the notification, 88 out of the 198 wards have been reserved for the candidates belonging to the Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Backward Caste-A and Backward Caste-B and the rest for the general category candidates.

As many as 53 seats have been reserved for Backward Caste-A, of which 18 are reserved for women from BC-A category. Thirteen seats including four for women are reserved for Backward Caste-B category.

A total of 23 seats are reserved for Scheduled Castes including eight for women from the SC category.

Only two seats are reserved for Scheduled Tribes, one of which is for women. There are 106 seats under the general category including 35 for women.

After releasing the list of the reserved wards, the government will seek objections and after rectifying corrections, if any, it will release the final list of wards.

This process may take one more month. Thus, the sources said that the elections may not take place before February next year.

For the past two months the government kept on assuring people that the list of wards would be out very soon but until November 30 the list could not be released.

The delay, according to sources, was due to stiff opposition to the reservation of wards from within the BJP, as many of its party workers did not agree with the earlier list of reserved wards.
