Consequent to coming into force of the said Legislation, the State has appointed a Commission for delimitation of wards and a dedicated Commission for providing reservation, including for Other Backward Classes (OBC) category. 4. The process of delimitation of wards, it is stated, is at the final stage and formal notifications are likely to be issued shortly by the State Government. 5. To be on the safer side, it is urged that the Court may permit the State Government to complete the process of issue of notification regarding delimitation of wards up to eight weeks from now. 6. Simultaneously, the State Government has assured to put in all efforts to ensure that the work assigned to the dedicated Commission concerning the determination of proportion of reservation, would also be completed within the same time and notified accordingly. 7. The assurance given on behalf of the State is placed on record and is accepted. 8. In other words, necessary notifications regarding delimitation of wards or be it for determining reservation percentage for the newly constituted corporation, be completed and notified not later than eight weeks from today. 9. The Karnataka State Election Commission shall thereafter commence the preparatory exercise of conducting elections to install the newly elected body of the Bruhut (Greater) Bangalore Mahanagara Palike constituted under the Act of 2020. 10. The State Election Commission can commence that exercise within one week from the date of notification of delimitation of wards and/or determination of reservation to be provided for OBC category on the basis of the recommendation made by the dedicated Commission, whichever is later. 11. Needless to observe that once the State Election Commission initiates the process for conduct of elections, it must take the same to its logical end in accordance with law expeditiously. 12. List these matters for further orders on 22.07.2022. SLP(C) No. 92/2021 13. 11.
