Final ward reservation list stumps most corporators

Most BBMP councillors will not be able to stand for election in their current ward under the new reservation rules. Here is the list of old, draft and new reservation categories.

Reservation in as many as 46 wards have been changed in the final roster when compared to the draft. Out of 198 wards, 97 wards have been reserved for women. It is for the time in BBMP election, 50 per cent seats have been reserved for women under women’s quota.s

Corporators from the BJP who have alleged foul play in the preparation of reservation roster and have blamed the government of involving in vindictive politics, have approached the High Court. They have appealed the court to quash the reservation roster. N R Ramesh, who was the floor leader in the BBMP Council told Citizen Matters that current reservation pattern has been framed in such a way that prominent BJP councillors will not be able to contest in their wards. Out of 113 BJP councillors, 87 of them can not contest from their wards, whereas 38 of 60 Congress corporators and 12 out of 14 JD(S) corporators will not be able to contest the election from their wards.

Mayor Shanthakumari (Mudalpalya), former mayors S K Nataraj (Sarakki ward), Sharadamma (Shettihalli ward), floor leader N R Ramesh (Yediyur) and others will not be able to contest from their wards as per the final reservation.

However, the High Court on Friday did not grant stay on the reservation case. It directed the State Election Commission, Urban Development Department and the BBMP to file objections on the matter in the next hearing. The case has been posted for April 20th.

Here is the list of reservation in BBMP wards published on April 13th 2015.

Acting upon the complaint from the residents (non-fishers) in the locality, the GCC demolished the temporary constructions made by the fishers of Thiruvanmaiyur Kuppam in June this year. Being less than 40 metres from the coastline, they were termed encroachments. A mainstream news outlet even referred to fishers' construction as ‘beach robbery,’ emphasising concerns that the illegal construction of houses and pathways could lead to the loss of turtle nesting sites and…

Bellandur Lake rejuvenation: An urgent call for action

Citizens have strongly disapproved the slow progress on Bellandur Lake's rejuvenation project. Immediate intervention is needed to avoid failure.

Bellandur Lake, Bengaluru’s largest water body, has been at the heart of an ambitious rejuvenation project since 2020.
