<p style="text-align: justify;">The election is not being fought on party signs. Different signs to a candidate would be allotted by the <strong>Shimla Municipal Corporation</strong> (SEC).Earlier on 29 May i.e. Monday, the Himachal Pradesh High Court directed the <strong>Shimla Municipal Corporation</strong> (SEC) to announce the date of the election to the civic body within a day and conduct the polls by June 18.The election to the civic body had been delayed by the poll panel discrepancies in electoral rolls. The <a href="https://himachalpradeshtimes.com/shimla-municipal-corporation-polls-on-june-16/"><strong>scheduling poll</strong></a> panel had also ordered the revision of electoral rolls, to be completed by 23<sup>rd</sup> June.The five year of the present corporation expires on June 4.</p>
