The Telangana legislator has approached the High Court seeking a stay on the scheduled by‑elections in the Khairatabad constituency, citing procedural concerns.
Vijaya Reddy, a senior member of the Telangana Legislative Assembly, filed a petition with the Hyderabad High Court on Tuesday, requesting a stay on the upcoming by‑elections in the Khairatabad constituency. The petition argues that the electoral process lacks proper documentation and that the election schedule was set without adequate notice to the electorate. Reddy’s legal team has cited recent procedural lapses in the Election Commission’s notification. The High Court has been asked to pause the election proceedings until a thorough review is conducted. The by‑elections were originally slated to fill a vacancy created after the resignation of the previous MLA.
