The Rajasthan State Election Commissioner, Rajeshwar Singh, has made a significant statement regarding the delayed panchayat and local body elections in the state. He emphasized that the government should take a decision on OBC reservation, following which the election commission will announce the polls within two days. This development comes after the High Court expressed displeasure over the delay in conducting these elections. The court's intervention has prompted the election commission to expedite the process. The OBC commission and other reservation procedures are currently under consideration. Once the government clarifies its stance on these issues, the election commission will proceed with the necessary preparations for the polls.
