Election Tribunal chief judge Sumalatha has disqualified Kachiguda corporator Ekkala Chaithanya for declaring two children instead of three in his GHMC election affidavit.
On a complaint by BJP candidate Umarani, the tribunal gave its verdict after checking the birth certificates of the children.
Consequently, runner-up in the election Umarani will be the new corporator.
