Corporator prepones wedding to make wife contest poll in UP

UP, 8/12: The importance of an election is apparently more than a wedding. A Samajwadi corporator in Ayodhya has proved it.

 

 

With the announcement of municipal polls in Uttar Pradesh, the corporator, Mahendra Shukla, preponed his wedding after his ward was declared reserved for women. He did this so that his wife could contest from his seat — Swargadwar ward of Ayodhya Municipal Corporation.

 

His ward has now been incorporated into the Laxmanghat ward following the recent delimitation exercise.
