Guntur: District collector and District Election Officer CM Sai Kanth Varma announced that ZPTC and MPTC elections in Kakumanu, Pedanandipadu and Phirangipuram mandals will be held as scheduled on Thursday. He said that an earlier announcement had been made regarding the postponement of polling by one day due to transportation difficulties caused by Cyclone Murusu.
