Political Parties Protest Against Nagar Panchayat Status In Nellore District Of Andhra Pradesh

Political parties in Nellore district have united to protest the conversion of Alluru village into a <b>Nagar Panchayat</b>. Opposing the administrative change, local leaders and residents from Alluru, Singapeta, and North Mopuru have collectively decided to boycott the nomination process for the second phase of municipal elections. On the first day of filing nominations, leaders stood guard at the nomination center to ensure no candidates submitted their papers. The protesters argue that the upgrade was implemented against the wishes of the local population. Consequently, the nomination process saw zero filings on the opening day as the community continues its <b>coordinated protest</b> against the government decision.
