Guwahati Press Club Elections to be held Tomorrow, High Court Refuses to Intervene

GUWAHATI: After 18 years, the Guwahati Press Club is all set to go to polls on March 12 to elect a new Committee and office bearers.

Altogether, there are 36 candidates, including eight women, in the fray for 10 posts. Two of these are reserved for female candidates.

This time 816 voters will exercise their franchise in the forthcoming GPC polls.

Meanwhile, veteran journalist and erstwhile secretary, Naba Thakuria, appealed in the Gauhati High Court stating that the voters' list is allegedly unconstitutional and also added that his name was removed from the general membership list.

The court stated that as the election process has already started the court will not interfere.
