The last date for withdrawal of nominations is August 14 and the polling would take place on August 21, the release said.
The counting of votes would be taken up on August 21 itself at 5 PM. The vacancy from the MLAs constituency of the Council is caused by the resignation of Kolagatla Veerabhadra Swamy (Congress).
