The Bombay High Court has ordered the State Election Commission (SEC) of Maharashtra to redraw wards for 11 councils across the state. The court's directive came after petitions challenging the existing ward boundaries, which were deemed to be disproportionate to population changes. The SEC has now been tasked with revising the ward boundaries to ensure they accurately reflect the current population distribution. The revised ward maps will likely impact upcoming local body elections scheduled for the state.
