Recently Karnataka faced ULB polls around 209 Local bodies were formed......
Elections underwent at a Rapid pace battle between Election Commissioner & Govt of Karnataka.....
The issues were 1) The election were carried accordingly to 2007 Reservations/categories.
Govt cried that it would be harsh to Women's who were demanding 50% & few minority ,backward communities would be injustice but the period of the ULB bodies were due hence Election Commissioner pleaded to Court of law & court(SC) upheld the plea of EC& directed to hold the Polls
My straight away question is few Peoples belonging to backward community were included in Scheduled Tribe during the Gazette of 2011 were they eligible to contest the election as they were not considered as ST during 2007......

This question can only be replied by Election Commission and not by legal experts especially when the plea of Karnatka State was turned down by Supreme Court of India in this regard.

It appears that issue has been adjudicated in favour of Election Commission.
