Myanmar junta says no voting in dozens of constituencies
- Myanmar's junta acknowledged its long-promised election would not be held in about one in seven national parliament constituencies, as it battles rebel forces opposed to the poll.
- The military has touted the elections, due to start in phases on December 28, as a path to reconciliation, but monitors are slating the poll as a ploy to legitimize continuing military rule.
- A notice said elections would not be held in 56 lower house constituencies and 9 upper house constituencies, as 'these constituencies have been deemed not conducive to holding free and fair elections'.
