Gandhinagar, April 17 : Amid the huge surge in the number of Covid-19 cases in Gujarat, bypoll to the Morva-Hadaf Assembly constituency (ST) will be held on Saturday.
Considering the prevailing situation of rising Covid cases in the state in April, the opposition Congress had requested the Election Commission of India (ECI) to defer the polls. We had asked the ECI to postpone the elections, just like the State Election Commission (SEC) had postponed the local body polls in Gandhinagar, but the request was not considered, said Congress spokesperson Manish Doshi.
