The Karnataka government is set to publish the final ward boundaries for Bengaluru, with the total number of wards now confirmed at 369. This represents an increase of one ward compared to the 368 wards that were notified last month.
Additional Ward in Bengaluru West
The key change in the final delimitation comes from Bengaluru West City Corporation, where an additional ward has been created. This brings the total number of wards in Bengaluru West to 112 wards, making it a significant development in the city's administrative structure.
Timeline and Implementation
The announcement was made on November 18, 2025, marking a crucial step in the ongoing process of ward delimitation. The state government had previously notified 368 wards last month, but the final count has now been adjusted upward following further review and considerations.
Impact on Bengaluru's Governance
This ward boundary finalization is expected to have far-reaching implications for Bengaluru's urban governance and representation. The creation of an additional ward in Bengaluru West indicates the area's growing population and the need for more localized administration and service delivery.
The publication of final ward boundaries sets the stage for upcoming civic elections and ensures that the city's administrative framework aligns with current demographic patterns and development needs.
