Andhra Pradesh MLC By Elections On January 28th

The by-election for the casual vacancy in the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Council, caused by the resignation of Pothula Sunitha, has been scheduled for the 28th of January.

“The Election Commission of India (ECI) has announced the by-election to the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Council for one causal vacancy,” said a statement from the chief electoral officer’s (CEO) office on the 6th of January.

Sunitha had resigned on November 1, 2020 though her term in office was up to March 3, 2023.
