Youth Wing Threatens Boycott Over Delayed Ward Delineation Exercise

The youth wing of the ruling party has threatened to boycott the next local council election unless the electoral commission completes a ward delineation exercise that has been pending for over two years.

Youth leader Preye Amachree said the delay has left several fast-growing settlements without proper representation. 'Some of these communities have doubled in population and still vote as part of a ward drawn thirty years ago,' he said.

The state electoral office says the exercise is 'in its final stages' and should be completed before the next registration window opens.
