Hyderabad: Election Commission of India on Thursday announced schedule for the byelection to one MLC seat in Telangana and three seats in Andhra Pradesh under MLA constituencies.
The byelection is necessitated in Telangana State after the court disqualified TRS MLC K Yadava Reddy for switching loyalties to the Congress during 2018 elections.
Three MLC posts fell vacant in AP as the incumbents Karanam Balarama Krishna Murthy, A Kali Krishna Srinivas and K Veerabhadra Swamy quit their post to contest in the recently held Assembly elections in Andhra Pradesh.
As per the schedule, the Commission will issue notification on August 7 and the date of polling is on August 26 and counting will take place on the same day.
