The Andhra Pradesh State Election Commission (SEC) has stopped the election process in 100 urban local bodies, including 13 Municipal Corporations and 87 Municipalities and Nagar Panchayats, following a Supreme Court directive. The elections were scheduled for October 14, with nominations from October 16 to 18 and scrutiny on October 19. The halt follows a Special Leave Petition by YSRCP challenging the High Court's refusal to extend the nomination deadline.
