HC adjourns Ponda bypollplea for EC to record stand
The Bombay High Court has postponed a hearing on petitions challenging the Ponda byelection, scheduled for April 9. Petitioners argue the election is unnecessary with less than a year remaining in the assembly's term. The Election Commission requested more time to present its position, citing the chief electoral officer's absence from Goa. The court is awaiting the EC's official stance.
