Chandigarh Mayor Elections

Delhi Minister and AAP Leader Gopal Rai said, "In a way, BJP went to the extent of stealing votes in Chandigarh to form Mayor..."

The Bhartiya Janta Party emerged victorious in the elections for the post of senior deputy mayor of Chandigarh.

The court proposed appointing a new returning officer not aligned with any political party and resolved to examine the contested ballot papers today.

The BJP is opposed to a plan that would transfer ward committee, employee, and standing committee funds into the mayor's discretionary fund.

SC expressed concern over the alleged defacement of ballot papers by the returning officer, said such actions are an assault on democracy.

BJP Chief JP Nadda praised the Chandigarh unit for securing the mayor's post for the eighth consecutive year.
