Panchayat Elections in Andhra Pradesh are not likely to happen any time soon. Intermediate Exams are starting from the Fourth of Next Month while the Tenth Exams will start from 23rd of the Same month. The elections can not happen until these exams are over.
The State Election Commission will extensively use School and College Buildings as Polling Centers. Teachers will be deployed on Election Duty. With the exams, they can not be diverted and so, the elections can not be concluded until mid-April if not later.
On the other hand, the Ruling Party in Andhra Pradesh, YSR Congress is eager to finish the elections as early as possible. The party and the Cadre is on a high with the Sensational Victory in Assembly elections and wants to replicate the same in these elections as well.
Early elections will also mean that the Opposition will have no time to recover. On the other hand, TDP, Janasena, and BJP would welcome this break as it would ensure enough preparation time for them. Usually, all the local elections immediately after the General Election or Assembly Elections will favour the Ruling Party.
