New Delhi, Sep 7 (TIWN) The Rashtravadi Janata Party (RJP) has moved a plea in the Supreme Court seeking postponement of the Bihar assembly elections scheduled for October-November to March next year in the backdrop of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and the floods that are ravaging the state.
The plea said: "It will be better for the safety of the people of India to hold the said election sometime in the month of March, 2021 when the situation in the state is somewhat normalised so that the citizens can participate and cast their votes safely and without there being any threat either of the pandemic or the flood."
