  • Even after ten months have passed since the death of the councilor of Ward No. 20, the election has not been announced!

    Even after ten months have passed since the death of the councilor of Ward No. 20, the election has not been announced!

    Ward No. 20 of Surat Municipal Corporation is yet to announce the election for the seat that fell vacant after the death of a BJP corporator ten months ago. Normally bye-elections are to be held in six months for the vacant posts but the government has not yet announced this bye-election. Two and a half years are going to be completed in the next few days when the municipal elections are over, but speculations are rife that this term will end with a fractured board as the election for the vacant post has not been announced. Despite this situation, various speculations are being made due to the silence of the opposition of the municipality.

    The Surat Municipal Corporation 2020 elections were held and the first board meeting of the municipality took place on 11 September. 120 corporators were elected from 30 wards in the Surat municipal elections and came to the municipality. Out of which BJP corporator Jayesh Jariwala died on 22 May 2022 in ward number 20. Because of this, there are only three councilors in ward number 20 instead of four. According to the rules of the municipality, when a member resigns or dies, elections have to be held after six months. But ten months have passed for Jayesh Jariwala.

    The municipality has written three letters to the government for the election of this ward, due to which it has been calculated that along with the assembly elections, a vacant seat in ward number 20 will also be elected. But despite the assembly elections, the election could not be held on the vacant seat of Ward No. 20. The opposition of the Municipal Corporation is silent on this issue. Ten months after the death of the corporator of Ward No. 20, elections have not been announced since they are not opposing the weakness of the BJP rulers, so it is likely that the remaining two and a half years will pass with a fractured board .
