A week after the Supreme Court directed the Karnataka government to publish a ward-wise reservation list to facilitate the State Election Commission for initiating the constitution of local bodies within a reasonable time frame, the State government published late on Wednesday night a ward-wise reservation list.
On July 28, the court had directed the State government to publish the ward-wise reservation list for the 243 wards to hold the much delayed civic polls.
