The State Election Commission of Maharashtra would hold the elections to 106 nagar panchayats, Bhandara and Gondia zilla parishads and panchayat samitis in two phases.
This was necessitated after the Supreme Court directed the SEC on Thursday to notify 27 per cent of seats reserved for Other Backward Classes to the general category so that the poll process can be taken forward.
State Election commissioner UPS Madan on Friday said that elections to General, SC, ST seats will be held as per schedule on December 21, 2021.
